Facebook owning the local classifieds section is often overlooked.

Offer up is dead in my area. Craigslist is a joke. Everything happens on FB marketplace. Vendors sell food, gyms liquidate old equipment, small furniture stores post their entire inventory.

FB isn't monetizing any of that beyond ads for related products, which I guess is how they monetize everything.

They're selling me the life of a divorced dad as a goal of some kind. It is amusing to an extent.

Facebook is running the same kind of engagement-maximization algorithm on Marketplace postings, so half of my suggested postings when I open Marketplace is girls posing in the clothes they're selling.

The reels section is ridiculous. It's definitely NSFW. Facebook doesn't support hiding it permanently.

Like what you experience, I cannot use Facebook at work anymore.

Any Facebook PM out there? Can you make it a setting to hide it permanently?

This is one reason I'm really annoyed they are getting rid of messenger.com and requiring you to go to facebook.com to see your messages. I much prefer going to the specific site for chats and not having to see the feed...

Same, Facebook Marketplace is really good at my location because there is nothing else and never have been. It's not like Facebook destroyed something, no one else offered a classified sites like this

Same, I have never interacted with their Facebook reels/videos but all the video thumbnails are practically just videos of porn stars/OnlyFans style content. Instagram isn't as bad on the Reels side, you'll get good content there...but the feed itself is dreadful, I never see anything from friends. It's all just slop from bigger brands/publishers. At this point, there are just chat services to me and my friends.
