    It’s actually EXTREMELY easy to get around that, so many fucking apps and communities for selling things locally.

    If you’re still using fb software stop lying to the rest of us, you simply don’t care about how evil the company is.

    Absolutely bs to continue giving meta interactions (and thus money) just because a perceived majority use it in your area.

    It’s the same goddamn bullshit as “all the people I like post on Twitter so I couldn’t possibly stop using it!!!”. Get a fucking grip on your morales.

      You’re not wrong. The inertia people have towards this stuff is unbelievable sometimes. You will be fine without marketplace. You’ll survive if you don’t see fresh content on Reddit every second of your life. People act like FAANG is fucking Kuato growing out of their abdomen, inseparable but through pain of death.

      Life existed long before this exploitative shit.

        I mean, yes. But fbk marketplace is the quickest and safest way for me to get some local random to come pick up a bird bath I don’t want.

      I get your point but you have to convince ALL the people selling stuff in marketplace to post it anywhere else that isn’t meta. There is literally no other app or community online in my local area. It is not a “perceived majority” it IS the majority.
