Federated classifieds marketplace

Every time I post something for sale on Craigslist/Kijiji/FB I get reminded that this is a use case we should be able to handle. We could also offer a non-profit alternative for wider audiences instead of generating revenue for Meta. It could also serve as another channel for new users to our Fediverse, people not necessarily interested in social media alternatives. The American corporate services won't be getting any better over time so an alternative is likely to be needed.

This project seems to be implementing a federated marketplace. If a Fedecaner finds themselves with even more time to donate than they already have and a similar desire, maybe that could be the next service to standup. :D

I left FB years ago. The one thing I miss is Marketplace. So, yah, I would LOVE to see an alternative.

Yeah, I hardly use Facebook at all anymore but marketplace is one of the better options for second hand, so it keeps me coming back.

Anyway, If you haven't already head to the original post and give u/rentlars comment an upvote! They said they would set it up if they got enough upvotes!
