Every time I post something for sale on Craigslist/Kijiji/FB I get reminded that this is a use case we should be able to handle. We could also offer a non-profit alternative for wider audiences instead of generating revenue for Meta. It could also serve as another channel for new users to our Fediverse, people not necessarily interested in social media alternatives. The American corporate services won’t be getting any better over time so an alternative is likely to be needed.
This project seems to be implementing a federated marketplace. If a Fedecaner finds themselves with even more time to donate than they already have and a similar desire, maybe that could be the next service to standup. :D
Thoughts?
I’m actually surprised onlinemarketplace.ca is available. Seconding that.
What about just flohmarkt.ca?
I’m thinking wide auidence and therefore something without spelling errors and not tied to the software name in case usage grows but we need to change to different software. Otherwise I like it. We could of course buy multiple domains too and forward. I’d like to be able to recommend this to my dad when he wants to sell some bike part.
