Bigger question. Honest question.
Why are YOU still there???
Because Facebook killed enthusiast forums for most of my hobbies and everyone migrated to FB. Thats where the knowledge is.
It’s pretty good for buying/selling used stuff.
Honestly, the only thing marketplace sucks for is cars.
Ive only ever had luck selling cars on platforms that require you to pay to list. Marketplace just gets you an endless string of time wasters and people who want it for half the asking price.
Marketplace is goated and a shame it's attached to FB
Because I have no choice. There are couple groups I'm part of, and they exist solely on fb. Even tried moving some of them to reddit like 5-6yrs ago, but it didnt stick. Reddit back then would've been better than fb... ultimately the decision was out of my hands.
