As this project appears to be fairly unknown in the fediverse still, I'd like to use this opportunity to advertise Flohmarkt. This Fediverse equivalent of Facebook Marketplace already has some instances up and running - see here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances

I tried to use it myself and it really isn't ready yet. It's missing so many features that a specialized Lemmy instance seems like a much better alternative.

Interesting idea. How do you deal with illegal trade?

How do I tell someone on the bus to check out this website?

"Just go to fedi.markets"

I don't see an issue. With any service on the Internet you direct people to the URL of an instance not the underlying code. If they saw "powered by flohmarkt" and asked what that was, I'd say it was German for "flea market" and I imagine they would be satisfied with that.

In my local area government interrogates selling boards about my data what I sell and such. I wonder if this could be forever resistant to authorities provided somebody actually uses it?

This looks cool! Any android apps?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

AFAIK not. Feel free to develop one!

What localities does this operate in so far?

Ad-software huh ? Maybe this could solve the monetisation issue of let's say PeerTube
