Ride where you feel most comfortable. In my experience, no matter where you ride, someone will criticize you. On the road, definitely some drivers will .... and if you mention on this site that you ride anywhere on the road, someone will tell you it is the wrong part of the road.
Probably if you ride on a trainer in your garage, your spouse will do criticize you .... for something. So just stay safe and comfortable.
