Villian was a 50/10/2 donk. Is calling this small turn bet standard here? How do you handle the river? Comment on all streets...

I don't mind preflop. With one limper behind and being UTG+1 I would usually fold here but it is definitely not bad.

I do not c-bet this flop. You are 4 way and almost never have the best hand so betting for value isn't right and your almost never getting a fold from all 3 so betting to bluff isn't right either. Just check.

Turn is fine. You are getting more then good enough odds to make this call.

River is fine. I don't think he has the flush because he would probably just check behind on the turn with the draw. I don't think there is value in raising because he is not calling with any less then a flush or a Q.

Yeah, this isn't a great spot to c-bet against three opponents. His turn bet makes next to no sense with any hand since he can check behind with a flush draw. This is probably a chop on river but I would call.

I don't mind flop cbet when they all check to you, but with so many people in the pot I probably bet 8-9 instead. Also on river I prefer a b/f line over c/c as I can see villain calling with a wider range that we are ahead of than the range that villain value bets.
