😼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

EVILiNNside (@EVILiNNx) reportedYears ago, I Interviewed for a really good job around the same time my phone # was being used for some craigslist scam & after multiple calls I finally lost it on a # I didn't know and of course it was the company calling. That feeling was so terrible, still went and interviewed.

luke 🍉 (@transsexual1ty) reported@PluginHyBrad @PiratesnPirelli @Walksalot503 literally anyone who’s ever bought a car off of somewhere like facebook marketplace or craigslist can tell you it’s a terrible idea unless you’re prepared to rebuild the entire thing
-
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.

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
-
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...

lala ✨ (@LakeShowLala) reportedWhen I was 19 I moved to California with someone off Craigslist because the @lakers were down 0-3 to Dallas in the western conference finals and I was certain if I touched LA ground they would come back. (They didn’t)

Robert Whitelaw,CRS - Realtor,Broker,Podcast Host (@rebelbroker) reportedLet me suggest that for any meeting like this where you are selling something to someone you do not know, you schedule the meeting at the local police station. Whether it is Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist or any other site, always take some minimal precautions for your safety. I have done this myself and I usually will call the police ahead of time to let them know I am doing it, just so they know what is up. The added benefit is that when you tell them you want to meet at a police station, if it is a scam, they will likely back out and you save time and trouble.

Erick Drobinski (@erick_dro) reportedI’ve already had 20 minute talk with your employee at the store I bought this at. Unless you can tell me you will manage this issue, I’m not sure what there is to talk about. You should tell people that Marketplace is basically the same as Craigslist when they are in the store

Brian Christian (@BCVT88) reported@PalmerDesigns_ Ice fishing is actually pretty fun, bought a cheap snowmobile off Craigslist for the kids and we still spend time outside. Can’t just shut it down and stay inside gotta be a little more willing to get out. Throw on some snow shoes and try hiking, it’s actually not that bad
-
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.
-
Brett Tanner (@Bewealthybrett) reportedIf you're posting jobs on Craigslist wondering why you can't find good people, that's the problem. The talent you want isn't on job boards. They're already crushing it somewhere else. Define the role. Then go hunt for the right person.
-
Dhruv Jain (@DhruvJain08) reported@MakadiaHarsh Craigslist is still one of the ugliest sites on the internet and processes billions in transactions. Speed to solving the problem will always beat polish.
-
AJ (@AJNoiter) reported@princess_kim_k @susancrabtree Do you know who shut down websites like ******** and Craigslist "Personals" section where human trafficking (including children) was rampant?
-
Patrick C. Delaney (@PatrickCDelaney) reported@AngelMD1103 I had this same problem with Craigslist giving away free stuff. Can you help me take it downstairs? No, it’s free stupid
