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

And why should we name things for the exclusive convenience of monolingual English speakers to the detriment of everyone else?

I don't disagree conceptually, but English has been a lingua franca for a long time now.

That's not an issue for brands. German and Chinese brands are just doing fine everywhere with the possible exception of the two countries in the world where people are not exposed to other languages.
