Looks like the concept made its way across the pond. The instance current focuses on the Oklahoma state.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that flohmarkt has a fedidb page as it is a new project with only a few instances in Europe.

Though the instances are not listed yet.

Historically speaking, the Fediverse has lacked apps related to money, trade, or commerce. Although there’s a growing number of small businesses, services, and contractors within the space, the network has largely been missing a shared marketplace for people to buy or sell things.

Flohmarkt (German for “Flea Market”) is a new platform that hopes to serve that need. The premise is simple: What if we built our own Craigslist, eBay, or Facebook Marketplace? The project is still relatively young, having only started in March 2023, but it exists today as a platform that anyone can use.

The overall experience is reminiscent of eBay, Etsy, or Facebook Marketplace, in that individuals can reach out to one another to sell or exchange listed items.

...

One extremely interesting here is acknowledging a limitation of today’s Fediverse: not every instance admin or user can use an integrated payment system. Instead, this platform allows users to privately message each other directly

But it's growing more and more in my memory so its getting easier to remember how to type out the word. Flohmarkt is german for flea market. How about another foreign word adopted into the English language like sauerkraut.

Come join the platform and start buying and selling on the community servers without the big corporation spying on your business dealings.
