I do feel that unsolicited advice is generally rude, even if given politely. If someone wants advice they will ask, anymore I don't offer advice unless I see something dangerous.

I use FB groups a lot, some are very toxic, some are really good, most fall in the middle. I often skip giving advice there though. When there are tons of incorrect answers, people won't listen to one or two answers that are different.

I don’t think it’s rude to offer advice, especially if it’s going to save someone some heartache. I think about newbies posting photos of first soaps that are on metal racks.
I also think sometimes people don’t like getting advice at first, but then later have an insight about what was said and end up learning something.

I'm new - need to know more about the metal racks thing!! I have metal racks painted black - will it do something to the soap?

You’ll want to put something (I use 2 sheets parchment paper) between your soap and the metal racks to avoid DOS. Even painted ones because paint can chip or get compromised. HTH

Very good point!
