I wanted to buy something second-hand. Unfortunately, Facebook Marketplace is the shit where I live. So I thought I could quickly register, contact the seller, and delete my account afterwards.

However, I refuse to participate in this insanity. Video selfie my ass, Facebook.

    I fucking hate that marketplace is the new place to find second hand stuff. Meta developed a marketplace to keep people on their website, not to have a good place to sell stuff. There are existing options they were actually developed as marketplaces that are slowly dying because of Meta’s crap product.

        Its still the same as it ever was, just less traffic and they charge five bucks to list vehicles now. I still use it but responses are a lot slower.

      It’s seriously infuriating having to go into Facebook marketplace to buy a used car now. Missing some key filters that make it so hard to browse.
