Craigslist is one of my favorite tech companies. They have a fantastic product which they don't sabotage in the interest of growth. Huge respect to them for quietly being the best.
- LegitShady 4y agoI don't think craigslist is a tech company.
- mrweasel 4y agoThat's honestly fair enough, but then neither is AirBNB, Instagram and Uber.
- LegitShady 4y agoI would agree.
- BitwiseFool 4y agoI feel like there is a risk of sabotage through complacency and a refusal to adapt to competition. People looking for rentals and homes to buy don't go to craigslist first, they do to sites like Zillow and Redfin. As I've mentioned in a different response, the spam and junk listings are a persistent problem and none of the spam seems particularly sophisticated or hard to stop - most are literally the same image and content with a ton of tags posted under different categories.
- JohnFen 4y agoTo be honest, I've never even thought about going to Craigslist for rentals in the decades I've been using it. But I use it a lot for other things.
