One huge problem is how Facebook marketplace dominates that space. Craigslist is useless now because nobody uses it.
This is a big one for me, idk if its Canadian only but I try to still use Kijiji but its dying and everyone uses FB marketplace and I hate it. Its so bad and unregulated and just deals dont feel good there.
We need a new alternative marketplace app.
I would rather pay retail for new cart parts than log into Facebook to try to buy used ones.
I've also been using Karrot in Canada. It's Kijiji but their app feels much more modern. But this has pretty much meant I post thing on both.
Its funny I saw ads for Karrot on FB ... So I assumed it was worse. I'll give it a try
You can still find some great stuff there because everyone is using marketplace. The one great thing about marketplace is that facebook is evil so they know who you are. It's false advertising though, facebook doesn't give a shit if you get murdered or not.
