For authors who has their beta readers check their work before releasing. How do you go about sharing your files in the internet? Do you use google drive or other sites?

Google Docs.
Instead of correcting directly, my beta reader would show me my mistakes, which sentences were awkward, when a word was missing, and then suggested how to modify it. It basically looked like this:
I'm not sure if you're familier with Google docs, and here it's in French, but on the right, you can see that there is a functionality to either accept or refuse his suggestions.
It allowed to see my mistakes, but also to be the one who ultimately choose what to change. Also, I like the fact that Google Drive save all version of your chapter. So even after you modify it, you can always restore a previous version :) Very handy !
