I deleted instagram. I held on to Facebook for 2 reasons. One, marketplace has taken over as the only viable local resell platform. And Two, it's the only platform I can use to share my music locally and vastly. I want my friends, family, and neighbors to hear my music and other than handing out a card with QR code to my Spotify, then I kind of stuck.

I refuse to use Facebook even for Marketplace. I still have pretty good luck with Craigslist.

I don’t sell locally often but when I do, I use craigslist. It’s also great for picking up a cable modem on the cheap when moving into a new area (don’t have to deal with the ISP-supplied one).

Just don't use marketplace for apartment and house hunting. It's filled to the brim with scammers.

I sold a bridge to someone on FB marketplace. I love it
