I suggest watching the video, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QkC1aK7jfLo but the article has an OK summary.

Also a Mastodon shout-out in the video.

Marketplace killed Craigslist because they're actually halfway decent at detecting and removing scams. Basically the only redeeming feature

Craigslist is still limping along, it's a smaller group of buyers but still has traction in some markets.

If we had proper anti-trust laws, Marketplace would have been a separate entity that could survive on its own, while the rest dies.
