Facebook. Design wise, it's an absolute mess. It's hard to know when or if new comments are there because Facebook's algorithms choose what you see despite your desires otherwise. Means you have to visit every single friend's page to see if they posted something (I've got friends that never show up on my feed, despite constantly posting things that I go and see).
Their response system is also screwed up; good luck having a conversation in response to a news article. It's like pissing in a dark suit.. it might make you feel better, but no one is going to notice it.
I'd also say YouTube is a mess, but it's recoverable. There's some mystery meat navigation going on there that I don't like, and it would be a lot better if it just showed you the newest videos of the people you subscribe to in a single feed at the top of the "main page", but they haven't figured out the blindingly obvious yet.
IMO if they removed comments from YouTube, it would be a more bearable website. Just have users @ you on twitter or reply to the post on Facebook. I'm happy TotalBiscuit doesn't allow comments on his videos, but it's a shame he wants me to go to reddit.
MySpace. It still exists, but its main user base had left years ago and it is permanently behind Facebook and Tumblr (which is arguably MySpace 2.0), as well as Bandcamp and Soundcloud for musicians.
The mods of the large subs are heavily censoring content (most likely, for pay). The admins are trying to monetize. And the users are getting sick of both.

Most social networks. The amount of spam is unbearable.

I used to be an active member on this site, but it was really frustrating because it's inundated with old, conservative farts.
