Paul Speaker (@fattailedstat) reported@ModeledBehavior I stopped using FB Marketplace and went back to using Craigslist. I have had too many experiences with rude people on FB Marketplace, and that hasn't been an issue (mostly) on Craigslist.

Wiz888999 (@ODB123) reported🤔💭People forgetting $eBay already had one of the nastiest corporate PR scandals in tech history. Federal case.DOJ involvement. Former employees pleading guilty over harassment campaigns against critics in Massachusetts. Surveillance. Threats. Creepy deliveries. Fake Craigslist posts. Whole thing sounded unreal. So now RC starts publicly cooking management, trolling seller experience, mocking culture, gets suspended… and internet immediately starts reposting old headlines again. 😭 Bad timing doesn’t even begin covering it. Narrative went from: “haha meme CEO posting socks” to: “why does every new controversy keep connecting back to older culture problems?” Online momentum moves FAST once people start linking patterns together. 👀

Ayush (@ironmark1993) reportedif you really study zuck you’d realise that zuck’s superpower was never seeing the future. it was reacting to the present faster than anyone else. stories from snapchat, reels from tiktok, marketplace from craigslist, ai from openai. every single win was a fast copy executed at a scale nobody could match. the metaverse was the first time he tried to lead instead of follow. $80 billion later he’s shutting it down & going back to doing what he’s always done - chasing whoever’s winning right now. which at the moment is ai.

Alexis Wood- 🎀 Rust Belt Princess (@IheardalittleT) reported@hostbodyhan I find the best cars on Craigslist, beware anything that’s been on the market for too long. Test drive everything, corner at slow and medium speeds with the windows down to listen etc - Good luck!

Dappy (@MilkDappy) reported@ohgoshimsam @pokimanelol @bigmonkeong 1. Why you respond to this so late? I didnt' even remember this conversation LOOL 2. Still no. If I try to haggle the price of the bike I found on craigslist down 20 bucks I'm being manipulative by definition but I'm not a predator. Manipulating people does not inherently make you a predator. Nobody uses the word like that

Basic Jon (@GayRealist) reported@DonaldMBishop @monkieboy99 @donjackoghue ****, I'd happily show **** to prove I'm male to access a site like that. Even back in grindrs height, it was a crapshoot and I always had better luck with craigslist personals, then the literal ****** had to get that shut down.

Possum Patriot🌸🍳 (@PossumPatriot) reported@sarahlol1863603 @Howlingmutant0 This reminds me there used to be these craigslist ads in an area I used to live of some old geezer looking for someone to "come find me in my house already lubed up presenting my ***" etc etc. Then they took down craigslist personals.

Jenny Pooh (@JennyPooh1039) reportedMEMPHIS MAN TRIES TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A BASS BOAT, SAYS ‘FAIR DEAL” Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old Memphis man wandered into Bass Pro Shops on Tuesday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a “fair market trade”: his wife of 23 years… for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash. Authorities say Ronnie Buckley-Jenkins approached the boat counter at exactly 11:14 a.m. (because of course he did), pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, “What would it take to walk outta here with that one?” When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included: His wife, Denise $400 cash A bag of frozen catfish “to close the deal” Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up. Ronnie then stood at the counter for 41 minutes… just marinating in confidence. During that time, he presented a printed document titled “WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT” (yes, in all caps, because professionalism). Highlights from the masterpiece include: A 14-day return policy (because customer satisfaction matters) A notarization by his cousin… who is absolutely not a notary A “best features” section listing “doesn’t snore” and “can clean a bass” An “as-is condition disclosure,” because we’re keeping things honest A checkbox marked “VERY GENTLY USED” (sir…) Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull. The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to “check with a manager” and immediately called the police. When deputies arrived, things only got better: Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, “He WHAT.” Ronnie insisted the trade was “fair market value” The boat… again… had a hole in it The employee was later offered a $50 gift card for surviving the interaction Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling “the boat thing.” When asked for comment, Ronnie stood by his decision, stating, “It came with a trolling motor.” Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective: “I have a job. I have a HOME. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.” Somewhere in Memphis, a Bass Pro employee is still staring into the middle distance, wondering how their day went from selling fishing gear to rejecting a human barter system straight out of 1823…

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.

𝙴.𝙱. (@hermesxvii) reportedAirbnb's first growth hack was illegal. In 2010, they built a tool that auto-posted Airbnb listings directly to Craigslist. - Craigslist had the traffic. - Airbnb had the product. Airbnb didn't wait to be discovered. Instead they became a parasite on one of the biggest websites on the internet. By the time Craigslist shut it down, Airbnb had already stolen a million users. Growth hacking is just knowing whose audience to steal before they notice.

Henry Akeley 🇺🇸 (@henry_akeley71) reported@SlumRNA_Dog VB Knives: “Can’t believe anyone would have a problem with this. Some real losers on this site. Making White kids sell peepee rugs to random violent nonwhites on Craigslist is a great way to build character and save up for code school.”

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."

Fernando Pinheiro (@fernandoiecp) reportedPortuguese dystopia in one image: the country celebrates a platform that sends ridiculous lowball offers on OLX (Portugal’s main classifieds site, similar to Craigslist) as if that would solve anything, while getting a building permit in Lisbon takes 36 months, there’s a chronic shortage of construction workers, public housing is 2% of the stock (EU average: 15%) and the government just added another 7,5% IMT for foreign buyers that will be passed on to the next Portuguese buyer down the chain. Price is the symptom. The real problem is supply strangled for a decade by red tape, labor shortages and zero public investment, while foreign demand was turbocharged with NHR, Golden Visa and negative Euribor. Liking TikTok videos is easier than demanding by-right permitting, an end to municipal discretion and lower taxes on those who actually build.
