Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace

Indonesian here.
Indonesian have highest trilingual population in the world, and our country regularly import foreign pop media, like from Japan, China, Turkiye, French, Argentine, and so on.
That name seems cool and we will never have problem with it.
In fact, a lot of FOSS software in Asia almost always use local language or pop culture reference for their project.
Whether it's in Chinese, Persian, Hindi, Javanese, Japanese, and so on. -
No one is saying you cannot have a good German name. Uber is an American company. Shit company but great name. Comes from German and translates to other linguistic communities fairly well

Fleabuch Maktplatz

Which is also reasonably close to the German pronunciation (which is something like Flo-marked to an English speaker)

Like eBay, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon?

The idea would be to host local instances.

Something, something über alles...
-
über? which you'd spell ueber, if you can't type ü

Will keep an eye on this, but there is nothing too local here (No, I can't host something myself). Given how the specification says there should be a location and radius per instance, some admins are really slacking on putting that info in the description.

If you feel any kind of meaningful trustworthiness from a Facebook profile, you've probably got some other things to worry about...
-
Yeah, you can still get something from the odd crank, but used to be much more practically useful for day to day needs.
-
german looks notoriously complicated for people who dont speak it
-
as always with these, it really comes down to whos using it.
