I guess I’m old by internet standards, so allow me to offer the best piece of advice I was given about navigating online spaces as a wee child:

People are going to post things you don’t like, and there’s nothing you can do about it. 

The world doesn’t revolve around you, and you can’t just magically make everything on the internet cater to your needs specifically. Block people, avoid sites, and never trust anyone you haven’t talked to personally. 

Safe to say, it’s advice that I’ve kept with me a lot in the past 15 years I’ve been able to use computers.
