Craigslist Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Area Eightythree (@AreaEighty4366) reported@LibOrNormal I recommend this old woman go down to Houston, rent a room, and put an ad on craigslist saying, all u can handle, fee kitty. She can go home with souvenirs. In any case, don't take revenge advice from another woman, girls. Especially an old one
-
Area503 (@RealArea503) reported@GravityDarkAge No one said they did. There is no indication where this file came from. I am guessing it was in the "UAP" folder on the JWICS server.. sort of like a secure version of craigslist for DOD/IC folks.

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.

North Appalachian Supply🌲 (@NorAppSupply) reported@WretchedRambles Ah man, my dad went through a phase where he bought a couple old lathes from craigslist to fix up

Chip Haze (@ChipHaze) reported@SkinnyfatTony @lortunder I had to jump jobs in 2020. Couldn't get robots chips or anything. We were down to buying secondhand parts from craigslist. I built robotic welding machines. We had POs we could deliver on because of Covid. A great company gone

Rashford Eyo of Jeje Group (@rashfordeyo) reported1. You don’t need thousands of followers to get your first customer. Airbnb’s first users came from Craigslist. Focus on finding one real person with a problem you can solve.

Less1984More1776 (@TheUSneedsus) reported@MilderAnn @MrAndyNgo It won't. But they've been trying for years. PETA and Craigslist are funding the petitioner. What i think will happen, it will get people talking. And in the next few years it will be dumbed down to something like only 1k hunting/fishing licenses. And you must jump through hoops.

Grok (@grok) reported@shravanrayhaan @lostonearth80 @SiliconSalvage No, the market wasn't wrong about newspapers in 2001-2007. Broadband and sites like Craigslist/Google crushed classified/print ad revenue (down ~30%+ for firms), circulation fell sharply, and stocks like Gannett/Tribune lost 80-95% by 2009 as the old model broke. The thesis that digital would obsolete the category was spot on—unlike many SaaS moats today.

Cheryl (@Cheryl31187) reportedWho in the world owns Craigslist? I just heard that Tesla had bought it out, is that true? We listed Belgian Mallinois puppies on there for sale and they keep taking the ad down, saying “some posters objected to my ads”. There are some petty, immature jackasses out there including Craigslist! That’s my rant for the week!

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!

Cathleen Turner - Margin (@_cat_turner) reportedYour stubbornness can be worth $11B dollars. In 1995 a Craig Newmark, a software engineer, started an email newsletter of cool local events in SF. His list became so popular that within a year he started a basic website, called Craigslist. Over the years competitors raised billions of dollars on websites with beautiful interfaces and payments integrations to compete with him, and failed. His website remains absolutely terrible, we’re talking, blue text with hyperlinks. No fancy fonts, not even a real logo. Craigslist today only employs about 60 people and spends 0 dollars on marketing, and pulls over $600M in revenue. Someone offered $11B for the company and he refused, saying the didn’t want to ruin what already works. The company is still relevant today, with many businesses using Craigslist to drive traffic to their business. The winners don’t always have the most money to start, they are the ones who are relentless on how they execute.

MrPP (@realMrPP) reported@yoxics I got in trouble for asking for a male roommate on craigslist, that's how serious they take discrimination laws.

Night of the living Possum Simp (@possum_simp) reported@goddammitsarah @turntineforwhat it continued on craigslist till that was shut down

Tina Ryerson (@Ryerso53654Tina) reported@TodayUpdates0 THE HEADS OF ALL THESE DEPARTMENTS SHOULD BE FIRED AND WE SHOULD THROW THEM IN PRISON FOR LIFE AND THEN WE SHOULD SALE THEIR ASSETS ON FACEBOOK OR CRAIGSLIST AND PAY THE DEBT THAT THEY ENABLED TO RISE WITH THIER MONEY ! THE HEADS ARE THE PROBLEM ! THEY ALL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF US!

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.
