Do you guys allow the search bots follow links to your social media pages or do you put nofollows on them?

Hi all - There`s a conversation I`m having in another group about using nofollow to social media sites but it`s transformed into discussing nofollow in general. I`d like to get your input on this as well. My original question was as follows:

Do you guys allow the search bots follow links to your social media pages or do you put nofollows on them? I`ve done both but I don`t know which is better and if there`s even much of a difference on my SEO performance in SERP and page rank/authority. Thanks for any feedback!?
