  NEW LONG FORM VIDEO: Why nobody uses Craigslist anymore Craigslist once generated more than $1 billion a year in revenue with just 28 employees. To put that in perspective, that’s more revenue per employee than even Google at its peak. Its founder turned down billions of dollars in venture capital, refused to run advertising, and chose to serve as head of customer service rather than CEO. For years, that philosophy seemed brilliant. But just six years later, Craigslist had lost more than 70% of its revenue. This is the story of how one man’s unconventional principles and vision built an internet empire and how those same principles may have ultimately contributed to its decline. This is the rise and fall of Craigslist.

  @Lexcalibur001 @Vyyyper @grok PC doesn't count as a current platform? I don't buy AAA games on launch, but I don't think that should be taken as an across the board statement that I don't play anything new. Some of my favorites are: Factorio <-Arguably not a game, but still the best game. Civilization V All the Creeper World games. Cyberpunk 2077 All the Serious Sam games Age of Empires II Age of Mythology Rise of Nations Deus Ex Fallout 3 / Vegas Saints Row 3 Ion Fury Portal Bioshock I'll give you a lot of those are older, but let's face it the new Civ games are crap. The RTS genera hasn't advanced since AoE2 IMO. I played the newer Deus Ex and what not, but the quality has dropped dramatically. Recently I have been playing a lot of rouge like action games. Brotato, Nova Drift, 20XX, 30XX I also do a lot of puzzle / physics stuff / real time problem solving games. I played a lot of the Steam VR stuff that was out more than 4 years ago. I have been waiting on the Steam Frame to get back into that. Quite a few arcade style games. A lot of indy games. I mostly focus on them at this point. I did pick up a Wii off craigslist just to do Mario Galaxy on the original controls.

  a man sold his own shadow on Craigslist. Now it rents out parking spaces in a dimension that doesn’t exist. Passive income is just a glitch in the algorithm of reality.

  @gatorgar This can be humor, but objectively speaking there is no greeter betrayal than what meta did to local classifieds. You literally can't sell anything if you've got in trouble once for a post. I wish craigslist was still the main community resale site

  A solo dev opened Flutter, spent 3 weeks on it, and shipped a ride-hail app a casual user couldn't tell apart from Uber. Yellow branding. Live map. GoabX, GoabXL, GoabBike tiers with prices. Visa 4242 on file. Home, Work, Airport saved. "Confirm GoabX" button. The whole flow. Pause at 0:08. Look at the split screen. Simulator on the right running the sign-up screen. auth_screen.dart on the left — the actual Flutter source with _Chip extending StatelessWidget, _CircleBtn wrapping a GestureDetector, BoxDecoration in black and white, Icon at 17.sp. That's not a mockup. That's a shipped auth flow. What the clone has: → Flutter frontend, one codebase, iOS and Android at once → Google Maps + custom route rendering → Ride-tier chips (X / XL / Bike) → Card-on-file with Visa masking → Google + Apple + Facebook social login stubs What the clone doesn't have: → 5 million active drivers → Regulatory clearance in 10,000 cities → A $60 billion payout rail already routed → Insurance underwriters who approved the safety model → Every dispute-resolution playbook Uber wrote from 2012 to now That's the entire product. Here's what nobody in the "just clone it" space is saying out loud: the interface was never Uber's moat. The moat is a two-sided marketplace with 5 million drivers who show up at 3 AM when you tap a button. You can build the button in Flutter in 3 weeks. You can't build the 5 million drivers in 3 lifetimes. The old loop is dead: study successful app → clone the frontend → deploy on the App Store → wonder where the users went. The new loop: study successful app → identify the offline-supply moat → build the supply first → treat the app as the last 5%. The point worth arguing about: the hardest part of building an Uber isn't Uber. It's convincing a stranger with a car to log in on Tuesday at 3 AM when it's raining. Everything else is a Figma file. I know a founder who spent 18 months writing beautiful marketplace code and shipped to zero drivers. Meanwhile a friend of mine ran Craigslist ads for 2 weeks, found 40 house cleaners in one city, matched them with 60 buyers, took 15%. He didn't need a Flutter app. He had a Google Form. The interface is free. The supply is the whole company. Literally.

  I once knew a guy who had such a vendetta against Facebook that he made a sockpuppet account with a girl’s name to make Marketplace purchases with a whole story about how he was “picking up stuff for his sister.” He was also anti-Craigslist and had trust issues with everyone.

  I used to own a recording studio. So I've watched this movie before. Around 2010 everyone and their grandma bought an Mbox, a $40 condenser mic, and a cracked copy of Pro Tools. Suddenly they were "audio engineers" charging $5 per mix and master on Craigslist. Recording artists in untreated bedrooms with foam taped to the walls. People flocked to them because it was cheap and fast. The music sounded terrible but it was "out there" and that's all that mattered to them in the moment. It nearly destroyed the mixing industry. Studios that invested in real equipment, real acoustics, and real skill couldn't compete on price with someone working off a laptop on their bed. But eventually the market corrected. The bedroom engineers disappeared. The artists who wanted quality came back. The studios that survived were the ones that never lowered their standard to compete with the bottom. That's exactly what's happening in the research supply space right now. Vendors popping up overnight with no testing, no infrastructure, no compliance. Just a Telegram channel and the cheapest price. And people are flocking to them for the same reason. It's cheap and it's fast. But cheap and untested doesn't last. It never has. In any industry. The vendors who test properly, build real infrastructure, and treat this like a business will still be here when the dust settles. The $5 mix and masters won't. #Tuesday #Peptides #Music

  Roofer: SEO doesn't work. Me: Looks at their website. The design structure looks like a 2012 Craigslist ad, the "Call Now" button is broken on mobile, and the content is just a wall of generic text copied from somewhere, idk

  @Papanicolaou_r3 Lewd models are fine and are encouraged. The issue is turning the scene into another craiglist. Lewd Models are aren't. Most of us don't want IRL nudes. There are other websites for that.

  @TheLastKekker If Facebook marketplace goes down will Craigslist take its place?

  @KicksKrave @xBitcoin_Teej Then you just lost the right to whine. This is the real difference between your generation and mine: I was willing to buy a car off of Craigslist or even accept a hand me down from family members because I needed to get from point A to point B only.

  Car shopping means checking CarGurus, AutoTrader, Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and more. Built CarMesh to fix that. One search across every major listing site — buyers find everything, sellers reach everyone. Bridging buyers and sellers. Live soon.

  @LuckyMcGee lol. I'm just thinking, if you plan to stick it down with silicone, you really need another set of hands. Look on FB marketplace or Craigslist for a handy man and hire them for an hour or two. Maybe reach out to thumbtack if you don't trust the locals.
