I don't care about Facebook, but Messenger and Marketplace I cannot replace them at all for the moment :-/
Instead of market place I use buy nothing, and offer up, and just give to my local goodwill.
There’s a buy nothing app. It’s a free community run organization for local things that started on Facebook then they made an app and website. It’s all give away stuff but I’ve gotten some really nice & expensive stuff off there and given a lot away too. It’s not as active as their Facebook buy nothing groups, but now maybe that will change. I refuse to use Facebook since I watched my mom turn into a crazy conspiracy trump shit person in 2020.
Ive even made friends with a few people through a few exchanges to them over time on buy nothing, like a nice old lady that I give fruit to from my garden and she makes jam out of it and gives me some back
