Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace (codeberg.org)

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

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 6 months ago

The first instance is called fedi.markets

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

I made the community !flohmarkt@lemmy.ca

However it only supports Europe right now.

They're all in German or something...

I looked into it on Yunohost and it said some stuff about "CouchDB" that I did not remotely understand.

You're aware that feddit.org is a German instance, right?

https://fleamarket.neilzone.co.uk/ and https://flohmarkt.modern-industry.com/ are in English

are the anything with auction system?

[–] hendrik@palaver.p3x.de 1 points 6 months ago

No auction. You get a text field to put in a price and that's it.
