WillismSNabokov (@WilliamSNabokov) reported@13B_SWAPPED @HankHil82749816 My buddies dad would keep buying him burner cars, these ones that run but with tons of issues from Craigslist for 500-1k every few months because we’d run them into the ground, crash, etc. an alcoholic repairman lived in their shed and illegally gave him inspection stickers

CosmicVoyager (@School4Clowns) reported@jimmykimmel On second thought, you should put out a Craigslist ad for local dancers, and give Don Lemon a grind down down on National TV!

🔅may🔅 chase ˙⋆✮ (@mayloveschase) reportedconsidering buying myself a life in craigslist, but having trouble deciding because they are all such a major improvement! must learn how to make nose shakes like owen. that'll impress codyyyy!

lmorato (@lmorato4) reportedWell, have you ever considered that maybe there was a really cool thing on craigslist that was worth like 100 billion but Erdogan was really really smart and haggled it down to just 20 and the guy fell for it and now he's just waiting for it to arrive in a week or two?
-
Bartholomew Roberts (@SlamFireOpera) reported@skillissuesf @dieworkwear Bruv, if you can't find a place to make a sweatshirt for $400 in the US that is the very definition of skill issue. You could probably get people willing to make them by hand with just a Craigslist ad for that kind of money.
-
Tom Smith (@tomwsmith) reported@Notwokenow shelters and craigslist are part of the problem. craigslist removes posts of people wanting to sell pets for $40. shelters are full or have a waitlist. if craigslist and ebay allowed pet ads for free or $1, we wouldn’t have this problem.

Rob Goodall (@RobGoodall6) reported@EamonOFlynn @DennisKendel Craigslist was the first major blow. The classifieds were 1/3 of most papers revenue back in the day. But none of this is our problem. Trust in the Canadian mainstream news media has largely collapsed because half the population has zero representation. The CBC, CTV and Global are pretty much indistinguishable and could be merged into one without anyone even noticing. There's a lot of things they could do, but they won't as long as their failing business models keep getting propped by the public purse. The world has changed. Legacy news is dying out, and we should let it.

Cosmic Nuisance (@cosmicNuisane8) reported@0xInk_ That slop looks like Gypsy Danger from Craigslist, and the "transformation" is just parts awkwardly appearing out of thin air. These problems could be fixed if you didn't need a ******* clanker to do the hard work for you.
-
Bob Smith (@TheGoodBobby) reported@mattyglesias Another big issue is the death of local reporting. Local newspapers were decimated first by Craigslist, and then finished off by Facebook. I'm on a couple local councils and the Chamber of Commerce, and there is no good way to keep people informed anymore.
-
Shobit Gupta (@shobitfarcast) reportedEveryone talks about Airbnb's Craigslist hack. The real lesson is the opposite of a hack. They flew to meet 24 users. They knocked on doors. They took photos themselves. The founders who find product-market fit fastest are the ones willing to do unscalable things until they understand exactly what's broken. Scale the insight. Not the hustle.

Suz (@susse62) reported@BuckHillsFarm Just a thought...never use Craigslist, Angi, FB marketplace. TROUBLE!!!! Don't give them your address!!!

Doc Martinez (@DocMartinez2013) reported@anistotle_ If you want a grim laugh. Scroll through the used car listings on Craigslist or FB marketplace. You'll see the same carbon copy energy in the ads as you would see on the dating apps. Instead of everyone liking hiking, tacos, movies and music, it's "runs strong", "new tires", "just had $1500 of maintenance done" Sir, that 2005 Dodge Avenger with 200,000mi isn't worth what you're asking and will break down the minute you look at it wrong.
-
Steve (@IovannaSteven) reported@BitcoinNoder I've never had any issues selling livestock on Craigslist. I think that is the only option - the others all have "no live animal" restrictions

Lane Fluker (@fluker_lane) reported@Grubworm71 @MeidasTouch Being gay is not his problem, MAGA, and posting sec pictures in the RNC on Craigslist definitely is a problem. Texan here, my gay friends can’t stand this dude!

timeecool100 (@timeecool100) reportedlooking through the all the free stuff people are giving away on Craigslist like yeah I could just go down there and take that I don't want it but I could take it if I wanted to

turtlewithdastrawberry (@tinkayoonocapoo) reported@Bitcoin_Teddy There's a lot of broken monitors being offered in Craigslist where I live. No way they're sweaty gamers in this economy lol

Brett Nashlund (@BNashBHHSDP) reportedBecause: Your price was too high Your marketing was poor It has too many problems or clutter You thought Craigslist had worldwide exposure. Call a professional... Contact me if you're in Northern California.

priscilla (alt) (@seashell_luvr) reportedMy mom once saw searches on my phone for a used car on Craigslist, and she screamed at me until my ears rang, telling me that I could never dream of affording it, how I don’t know about insurance (I did), and how I was childish for wanting to “just buy a car” (I was only curious and doing research, I didn’t even want one yet). Yet will also put me down for lack of social life, for my age and lack of independence? But will also make negative comments about making friends in unconventional ways (like through Twitter)? And disparage any attempt at independence? My parents have supported me in so many ways. I was unstable and unable to work at one point, and I would have been homeless without them. Yet I also feel incredibly trapped and claustrophobic. A part of me dreams of living far away. I just want to be left alone and not have to talk to anyone for a really long time.

0R4CLE . (@PR0PHETIA) reportedthis is my slicer ( gestures to weirdly half broken slicer that's covered in glitter glue and a half tied bow ) i named him cheese i got him off craigslist for 26 dollars
-
Lisa Ann Jones (@LisaAnnJones61) reported@the_dadchef When my '77 wall oven started acting up: "Ma'am, for the cost to fix this you may as well buy a new one!" After TWO new garbage wall ovens later, I'm scouring Craigslist & Marketplace for a circa 70s-80s oven in decent shape (avocado or gold now acceptable). Ridiculous.
-
Jojo's Bizarre Vent Oreo #ringtwt (@Jojosbizarreven) reporteda recent desire of mine is getting a huge *** desk one would see in a cartoonishly evil ceo's office in kids movies. the issue is that these desks are wooden and big which means they are expensive as **** unless i go trawling through craigslist and luck out on a free one.
-
GeoSPatton (@Geo_S_Patton) reported@MrsCMFrancis You're not kidding. I am trying to down size and I hate to just discard things. Don't trust FB market place or craigslist. What do I do with it. It has value.
-
Thomas Meijer (@ijsthee) reportedYou don't need a designer. You need a decision filter for 'what belongs here.' 3 Proofs: 1. User Onboarding study: 86% of churn due to unclear flows, not ugly UI 2. Craigslist looks terrible. Still dominates because IA is perfect for its job. 3. Most redesigns fail because they change visuals without fixing structure Question: If users can't find features, will prettier buttons help?

boomin sooner (@kellyb019283) reported@MONETARY_MAYHEM @calvinfroedge I keep telling you guys to buy and fix up all the old motorcycles on Craigslist & fabo marketplace. Motorcycle prices will triple by eoy

Nathan Newman | Web developer (@dev_Doniix) reportedDAY 6 of coding to make my parents think I have a real job 🚀 target - become a full-stack developer 💸 earned - $0 (a guy on Craigslist offered me a pizza in exchange for "a small website". I said yes immediately.) the Craigslist client wants a full e-commerce website he described it as "something like Amazon but smaller" I described it as "sure no problem" I do not know how to build this I opened ChatGPT and typed "build me an e-commerce website" ChatGPT gave me 400 lines of code I pasted it it didn't work I asked ChatGPT why it doesn't work ChatGPT apologized and gave me 400 different lines of code I am now the middleman between ChatGPT and a pizza mom asked who I'm talking to at 2am. I told her my senior developer. she asked why my senior developer sounds like a robot. I said that's just how senior developers sound. status: in development. hungry for pizza. outsourced. further less 💪

joey baum (@joeybaum13) reportedIn San Francisco, a city on the cusp of every new technology, has a rather antiquated system for finding rental apartments. it's mostly craigslist and calling the phone number that hangs on a sign in front the building.

Victor Dogeman (@VDogeman) reported@devcom1 I’m sorry for your loss. I lived with my brother for several years. He intended to buy a pit (bleh) on Craigslist for $40; it turned out to be half greyhound / half mutt. A brindle greyhound with a lab face, basically. I was across the country when Vic had to be put down. I wept.

Cyber (In)Security (@cybersec) reported@notdan @NSAGov Used to work there doing offsec (CNO & CNE). Can confirm. For a minute there we knew Al Queda had moved from stego embedded Craigslist ads to WoW (2012/2013 time frame). We had found one server that was like a hot bed for comms.
