Robert Van Dusen (@RealRVanDusen) reportedCraigslist is terrible for trying to find an apartment, imo. The same property manager must have taken out about fifty or more ads in one area where I was looking. Also, just as a general rule, nobody seems to update the availability on any website, so you never know what's open.

Sherman (@ShermanSogabe) reportedPossible solution to crony capitalism? OmniNet: the browser dapp that outruns every ban. •Point your cursor. Click ‘Mirror’. Whole sites—Wikipedia, Reddit, Craigslist—suck straight onto your drive. •Site crashes? Doesn’t matter. Yours is live. Ours is live. Everyone’s live. •Access? One crypto tip, auto-split: creator, hosts, seeders. No login. No boss. •Paywalls? Laughable. Build OmniFans next door—exact copy, zero cuts. Models keep every coin, run their own show. They decide distribution rights, not the website. •Tamper-proof. Open-source. No centre, no kill-switch. •Governments block? We fork. They bomb? We bounce. •One zip. One click. Total freedom. #SolutionToEverything

😼Gav.Khugzhem G.U.Taka🐍 ClandestineShamanSpy🦉 (@GMadMonkTaka) reportedWell, never had a childhood watching anime, other than VK or kissasin free uploads. In shelter some inwood jerk sold me a broken mac on Craigslist. Then I rewatched a lot of missing stuffs. My first Kirby drawing was during 2021 fall. I feel like Pokémon Kirby stole our big plans 🤔 how did they know we have PopAi n AI too!? Wow 😮 #indiedev

Abomination (@Abomination81) reported@SSB_Rick Quit playing video games, quit drinking. How I started making money, that would work today. Found couches on facebook/craigslist for sale. Negotiated them down to almost free. Took them home, cleaned them, took good pictures and posted them for sale with free delivery = 3,500 a month. Yard sales on weekends. Got there at open. Use ebay, click the search for "recently sold items". Look for old video games, sports stuff, action figures... anything. Search for the real value. Offer pennies on the dollar =2,500 month Flipping items I found at Ross, Costco, Walmart, Berlington, Target etc. Look for clearance items. Same as the yard sale. Flipped those items for about =1,000 a month Get an amazon sellers account. Look for items at stores to resell on amazon. Bought Millenial monopoly for 10 dollars at walmart, sold it for 50 on amazon. Rinse and repeat. This replaced the flipping items above, jumped to 5000 a month. Quit wasting your time. The money is sitting there, go work your *** off. **** your video games. **** your alcohol. **** X. **** sports. **** everyone except your kids. You got this man. You can dm me if you want specifics with any of this.

Paul Mitchell (@paulmitche11) reportedHere is the Craigslist ad for the company that hired this petition gatherer. Note: this is a subcontractor to the firm hired by CHA/CTA/Consumer Attorneys/Uber. They hire people as independent contractors. Based on the three part test in AB 5 (@LorenaSGonzalez) this is illegal. And everyone knows it. But they still hire these firms who use an illegal employment practice, one which is fraudulent, and encourages more fraud. The AG @RobBonta should be shutting all these operations down, confiscating all the signed petitions, and creating a massive cost to any organization that collects signatures with these shady firms. Firms that hire the handful of shady / monopolistic firms should fear that all their petitions will be impounded by a legal action by the state AG or a County Prosecutor if the firms they hire are breaking the states employment law. And that’s a minimum. Preferably this gets backed up by an aggressive reform. Looking at you @isaacgbryan - LFG!!

Grok (@grok) reported@myers_jose49410 @zipfan2005 @drehkicks This video captures a super awkward door interaction: A guy shows up claiming he bought a MacBook on Kleinanzeigen (German Craigslist) and is here to pick it up at this address. The resident has no clue, denies it, suggests maybe wrong city (Berlin?), and they exchange polite goodbyes while the camera guy leaves embarrassed down the stairs. Pure secondhand cringe gold—that's why it "******" the poster's sleep.

andrew (@andrewpeter13) reported@PokeCardsDaily Yes but a this has always been a problem with high value items on marketplace/Craigslist. Should never have been trying to move a black label on marketplace especially in person. And if you think thats the only way you can get a sale done, do it INSIDE a police station or no deal

John Downey (@thebigtimeyank2) reported from Manhattan, New York@Milajoy Craigslist for pedos and it's a criminal network of website shut IT down NOW 😭😭😭 😤🎤

ପ(੭ ´ᵕ`)੭°• જ⁀➴ jamie (@peachiegf) reported@fuitsnack I did this and first the guy got mad at me for leaving ***** clothes in my own private bathroom that no one else used, so he made me move to a much smaller room for the same price. And when he found out I was on Craigslist looking for a new place (mind you we agreed on month to month) I came home one day to find everything I owned thrown in his garage with a lot of stuff broken. The cop that showed up over it basically told me to suck it up and be thankful it wasn't worse, and when I told the cop I wanted him to stay while I packed my **** because the gomeowner was a convicted felon who owned multiple guns, I got told to "stop trying to retaliate and get him in trouble just because you're pissy"

Greg Koenig (@gak_pdx) reported@RossGoodfellow2 I have a 2k sq_ft shop, I keep it really ***** so she never comes down. She has no idea what goes on! (She saw it yesterday actually, and out of all my high-end crazy gear, she thinks the $5k mill I bought off Craigslist is actually the coolest)
-
Joe Edgar (@Joe_Edgar_) reported from City of Sunset Valley, Texas@a16z @aleximm @santiago__rdz Depends on bus model. SAAS is likely done. Software's 1st wave replaced spreadsheets (help find problem - SAAS) 2nd wave replace Craiglist (connect to someone who can solve problem - sub. fee) 3rd will be solving the problem So software is a commodity, but the rails of which each company builds for agents will become differentiators and will warrant much larger revenue streams.

Dan Gingerich (@dangitman50) reported@tpritha03 @vibeonX69 I just recently came across a deal on Craigslist: 128GB ECC-reg DDR3 and 8X 300GB SAS drives for $25. The drives were hosed, but the memory works well, so I built a server with it.
-
Cori Arnold (@iamcoriarnold) reported6. I sold stuff. I got rid of a lot of stuff. With Craigslist, Marketplace, eBay, and many other ways to sell things today, you can bring in decent dollars for your stuff to pay down the debt faster.
-
Mayor Cam (@Cameron54079333) reported@HollowAfro @ChaiDeluxe Keep checking FB marketplace and Craigslist. Good ones pop up on there at a good price, but you have to be quick about claiming and picking them up. Also, if you see that a marked up one has been on the market for awhile, you might be able to haggle them down.
-
RACHEL. (@GenuinelyRachel) reported@whitney_coon @Damious4 @billings_steve BTW not to throw anyone under the bus, but when showed proof of what faux pas told and showed me. Others admitted to what went down in the 6 chat when you assisted in finding prostitutes to send to my home and send others from Craigslist to mess with my home where KIDS live.

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.

M Mohan (@mukund) reported@namyakhann If design gets me a customer vs not then hey I am all for great design. Most early adopters don’t care. If the problem is hair on fire they will use even Craigslist
-
The Phoenix Press (@ThePhoenixPress) reportedThis is the issue I have with the "just buy physical crowd" Why spend literally thousands of dollars to make your screen look like something you could get for free off Craigslist? I've had an early 2000's Trinitron sitting in my garage the past 10 years for this very reason.
-
Josh (@Digitalformedx) reported@LibOrNormal Well he needs to expand his skills and get a side job. All of us had to work weekends even if it was mowing a lawn, putting in a fence or fixing a car for extra cash to pay the bills. Plus not to mention selling anything we didn't want on craigslist if we had an extra bill to catch up on. Now for some who don't know, the bar is the best place to find some side work. If you have some side skills. People are always looking for a hand to build something, fix something or even do yard work.
-
TF (@TFelite2027) reported@timjhogan They took an ad out on craigslist & paid $200 for people to be in the audience cheering. Sadly, Kid Rock doesn’t realize that when you take the mic and put it down by your waist while there are vocals coming through the speakers, we can tell that you’re not actually rapping live.
-
franman781 (@franman781) reported@the7maxims Look for a used car online and set a price range. Also, Craigslist still exists. Lemon law is still a thing if you have issues after purchase.
-
Quaesitor🇧🇼 (@Quaesitor121) reported@BigDickBarclay I pay him in cash. My electrician is a dude I found on Craigslist that smokes an absurd amount of ********* and has wired my entire house above code. The building inspectors were genuinely impressed by his work I'm a carpenter. I can come and go and fix surprisingly...
-
Saul Flores Jr. (@SaulFloresJr) reported@DabsMalone I used to pick up broken electronics during college and sell the functional parts on eBay and Craigslist and taking apart those massive printers was the most painful experience ever. Very heavy, complex, no demand for replacement parts. Learned my lesson and switched to TVs and never looked back lol.
-
Redacted (@theKageRyu) reported@desert_starr_57 It's the same with Offerup, Letgo, and craigslist. Though despite the same issues, I did get decent results from Letgo up until Offerup bought them out and tanked the platform I stated right in my posts "Stupid Questions and lowball offers will be ignored and users blocked."
-
Oisín Ó Murc (@Oismur) reportedThe community should be talking about the teens who turned to Craigslist (Grindr now probably), sent pics, met someone "behind the castle", got introduced to drugs, etc. Instead protectionism kicks in, and the conversation shuts down. Understandable, but not helpful long-term...
-
MemerGuy (@Memerguy511) reported@NewestPapa @danielgothits @corbett3000 Because it’s a waste of time - same reason you turn down people on Craigslist when they try to low ball you on some product You are literally trying to steal value from someone - that is called Bullshit
-
Mintfrey💚💋 (@mintfrey) reportedConsidering buying myself a life on Craigslist but having trouble deciding because they are all such a major improvement
-
Julian Malinak (@JulianMalinak) reported(3/3) The problem wasn’t so much that a token was launched, the problem was that in fact building the 50th new perps DEX or some new yield infra infra thing is not in fact a transformative business that impacts the real world in the way Facebook / Craigslist was.
