As someone who cares about software, the internet, user interfaces, design, and patterns of political and social power choosing a social network to use is a part of my identity as much as the clothing I wear, or what I choose to eat. It baffles me that it seems most people don't really see it as a decision or a reflection of who they are.
When I talk about alternatives to big social networks it's like I'm saying "why do you breathe air? it's problematic, I breathe alternative air..."
