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
But telling a friend about this starts with the name. Simple names are easier. And that would just start with making it short. Single syllable being best.
Isn’t this more like the software you’d use to build whatever local (but maybe federated) site? Like, you don’t ask your friend if they’ve been on Shopify or Squarespace lately.
Yeah, possibly. Depends – if the data is federated between instances (which I assumed) you could have access to the whole world’s market and it would still be useful if there was a feature that allowed you filter out locations you’re not currently interested in.
Yeah, would also be nice to be able to combine multiple local markets.
Like eBay, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon?
