What are the positives/negatives of sharing online?
A positive would be the fact that everyone can see it, but that can also be a negative. It'd be a positive because you posted something good, a negative if something bad. Another positive would be that you can make friends off your posts because of common interests, but a negative would be that you can also make enemies off them and argue due to clashing opinions.
