Craigslist Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • JohnGordoneNYC GordoneInterviews (@JohnGordoneNYC) reported

    @CybeleRain Craigslist is still acting the same after all the shutdowns. Are did it just wait until the commotion died down to behave like nothing happened

  • ktdrg Katja [🔰🏳️‍⚧️❓] Antares, a 🐱🐲. (@ktdrg) reported

    @HYENABLOOD yEAH …another instrument to consider: see if anyone's ever selling, like, any woodwind for way too cheap on Craigslist or whatever. Even if it's Kinda Broken. Running a janky, beaten up sax through that many pedals could be incredible.

  • SyProtSid Maker of Nonagon Dot Finance (@SyProtSid) reported

    @VitalikButerin you mean the chicken and egg issue when bootstrapping users / ads / products in a marketplace like Alibaba? CraigsList?

  • TonyaJoRiley Tonya Riley (@TonyaJoRiley) reported

    My biggest life hack is posting heavy broken things "for parts" on Craigslist/Nextdoor instead of paying for junk removal which is easily the cost of the item in some cases.

  • Katelynjontel Kate is Tired (@Katelynjontel) reported

    trying to convince my fiancé that buying a commercial soft serve ice cream machine off of Craigslist is the answer to all of life’s problems

  • brigleb Brigleb.irl (@brigleb) reported

    Craigslist would be so much easier to use if they’d just use system fonts instead of Times New Roman for the UI. Wouldn’t slow the site down, either.

  • yourbuddyspooky Spooky & the New Way Forward!!⚡🚗 (@yourbuddyspooky) reported

    @kimmie_c_ Oh boy do I have a story for you. #StorytimeWithSpooky Years ago, I worked in NYC & picked up IT gigs from Craigslist. These were things that someone might call an IT helpdesk to fix. My wifi is busted, my mouse doesn't work, stuff like that.

  • augustmom3 August Mom (@augustmom3) reported

    @Laura15Edwards Have you checked your local Craigslist or Marketplace on Facebook? There are free ones out there. They won’t ship a piano- you have to pick it up - locally. That can be a problem. Try looking and good luck.

  • fawnbear1031 Jpowpow (she/her) (@fawnbear1031) reported

    @SquirrelGirl67 Hi, not a doctor, just someone who broke their foot ): My money is on something being broken. Urgent care for me was $250 for immediate X-ray & a half-way decent splint. Bought crutches from Craigslist for $20

  • ArtofDavidW David Wentworth Art (@ArtofDavidW) reported

    @ilanartist my ability to get work done plummets when temp gets above 76 -- we have apt. AC, but i got a window AC unit off craigslist for my bedroom to cut down on the electric bill.

  • infosecanon Virtual Adept (@infosecanon) reported

    @sogonsec @snipeyhead I've had great therapists that made me realize how I was cutting myself down and terrible therapists that have told me to 'find friends off craigslist' or that I should 'just take things less seriously' It sucks to find one, but worth it

  • Monkeh_tm defense contractor enthusiast (@Monkeh_tm) reported

    To be clear there's no morality debate it's the vaguely written law that shut down Craigslist personals or whatever

  • youtseymenow y00tseymenow | deephaus.eth (@youtseymenow) reported

    @tdangy I paid a guy $20 on craigslist to fix this. Was able to be fixed 3 separate times before it was unrepairable!

  • Dark_Moonstruck Lady Luna(She/He/They) 🔞 (@Dark_Moonstruck) reported

    @EscapedAudios Oh my GOD I hate motorcycles or those idiots who mess up their car to make it super loud. *No one thinks your broken down rusted out janky *** car you got for $200 off Craigslist is a racecar, Dave!*

  • POE314PI Ella🌱π🍊👣🌺🌎🌴🍋Florida ن (@POE314PI) reported

    @misstozak I've seen riding mowers on Marketplace & Craigslist pretty cheap. Idk your location but a guy in Spring Hill promises to fix mowers for $75, In case yours is broken.

  • Fraud4Less Gods & Country 🇺🇸🌻🌻 (@Fraud4Less) reported

    @samlo_xo I thought they closed down Craigslist Personals.

  • RpgrsD Daniel Storm 🚨DICE GIVEAWAY PINNED🚨 (@RpgrsD) reported

    things I have learned along the way. 1) When you buy used you run a risk of it not working properly. I always try to test out audio equipment when I buy it second-hand. If I'm on FB marketplace or Craigslist buying something, I usually insist on testing it out first.

  • HughMan08417790 Hugh Mann (@HughMan08417790) reported

    @TitusNation I guess Craigslist lawyers were turning him down.

  • edward_w_hood 🇺🇸Edward W. Hood🇮🇱 (@edward_w_hood) reported

    @RobinhoodApp uses the 💩iest identification provider on planet Earth. It's beyond terrible. If you lose access to your phone number, good luck getting access to your trading account. They probably hired a programmer on Craigslist to write their app. #robinhood #garbage

  • HowMuchGrief logan (@HowMuchGrief) reported

    @pulte Tried selling my gaming PC on Craigslist to pay for rent that’s due on Thursday and ended up getting robbed. Would make a world of difference for me since I’m still on LOA for a mini stroke issue! $kriptee

  • MaxHEXposure MaximumHEXposure (@MaxHEXposure) reported

    @MMCrypto You'd only have to sell ~6,548 more of those million $ whips to buy up the new #Bitcoin being minted out of thin air THIS YEAR to keep the price from going down 😬. Now I haven't checked Craigslist, but you might be the only one who did.... -max $HEX

  • atomicthumbs walking mirage (@atomicthumbs) reported

    @wolf_apparatus let me know if it might work out, and I can take it down off craigslist and such

  • wormatheart (ㆀ˘・з・˘) (@wormatheart) reported

    getting a craigslist dog and blocking everyone will fix everything

  • at0micv0mit daniel (@at0micv0mit) reported

    hiring random people off craigslist to call me boss and solve made up problems

  • Malcontent79 Malaphor life (@Malcontent79) reported

    Craigslist listings are ******* wild. There's a couple out there who want a roommate they can bone down with for $800/month. Come on now, let's be honest, you two: YOU would be paying ME in that scenario

  • devuxer Dan M 🇺🇦👨‍💻🎾🚘🏳️‍🌈 (@devuxer) reported

    @marcind @JeffHandley I’ve sold two cars through Craigslist and thankfully didn’t run into any issues. That said, the sales were years ago, and we completed the sales at their bank so I could actually see the issuing of the bank check with my own eyes.

  • grimy_crank Grimy Crank (@grimy_crank) reported

    @mschlapp “riots only get funded” Idiot ******** moron, with zero pieces of evidence anywhere ever, seriously believes that rioting is a paying gig. Like, everyone saw ads on Craigslist or something? Grandpa should put the tweeter down and go back to Matlock reruns. Grandpa so stupid!!

  • onlineawale . (@onlineawale) reported

    @eche204 @asemota @seunosewa If it is not broken, don't fix it. Like Craiglist, Naidaland continue to do well. The founders know not to go overboard with what they are doing. They have fashioned out the best way to get things to work. In the case of both they know access to information by their users

  • yourbuddyspooky Spooky & the New Way Forward!!⚡🚗 (@yourbuddyspooky) reported

    @kimmie_c_ I set up YouMail on my phone to send any calls from her to a "number not in service" message so she'd drop me. And because the emails were through Craigslist, as soon as the listing went down, so did her ability to contact me via email.

  • JnxOuaquaga Ouaquaga on Chenango (@JnxOuaquaga) reported

    @reillymorgen What. 1. I already had tires out there. 2. There are already planters out there. 3. Tractor tires are huge. There is not room in that spot. Would look terrible. 4. Old tractor tires are free on Craigslist. 4a. I do not need more tires 5. I already know what I want to do.
