flohmarkt
codeberg.org
federated decentral classified ad software using activitypub

As this project appears to be fairly unknown in the fediverse still, I’d like to use this opportunity to advertise Flohmarkt. This Fediverse equivalent of Facebook Marketplace already has some instances up and running - see here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances

The developers are always open for discussion on their IRC channel: https://web.libera.chat/?nick=GithubGuest%3F#flohmarkt

Please feel free to host a local instance for your city/town and invite friends and family to post. Flohmarkt relies on local relationships and pick-up items only rather than shipping stuff worldwide.

    Great idea… Not so sure about the name, though. Hard to spread by word of mouth when you have to spell it out

      Depends on your native language.
      It’s German for flea market

      But yeah, I guess in English speaking countries it’s a bit hard to say ;⁠-⁠)

      The first instance is called fedi.markets

      Instances can be named anything. We have sh.itjust.works on Lemmy after all
