As ever a forum like this is as close as I get to have any kind of account on social media (some want to count forums as such things, I am not inclined to, nor do I consider the likes of youtube, bitchute and Twitch as such things). However I try to keep reasonably current on what is out there and what is being used, if only to answer the "why do I need a website, I have a ? account" and "what social media sites do you suggest I put news feeds for my business and speak to my customers on" questions. I don't even maintain burner, zombie and network of fakes accounts for anything any more. As best as I can tell my life is fine for never having played with such toys and they fail at being what they were initially billed as -- facebook being email 3.0 where lookup directories actually made sense again, twitter being a shinier form of RSS and so on.
Things that are straight dead at this point I am not inclined to pay attention to so no need to be cute and say I don't have myspace, though if you do have an active myspace then by all means mention such things.
I am fairly loose on definition of popular. Though if I might expect to see requests for "follow me on" (twitter, instagram, VK, facebook, minds, gab, parler, tiktok, locals looks more like a forum but maybe, reddit might be afflicted by many of the woes of others but also could be a thing, pinterest, periscope, linkedin, snapchat, whatsapp) or see adverts on TV or radio (was wandering past a radio and heard tiktok advert) then yeah.
There are all sorts of things out there. What decisions do you make when joining them? People you don't know on there? People you do know on there (and at what level)? Censorship issues (it does not seem to take much to be ejected, censored and blacklisted on many popular sites)? Safety issues? Are you the sort to sign up to each and every new service going? It has been noted that where the kids are at will soon be their parents and after that the kids leave?
