Ok, I feel old. The only reason facebook has any relevance to me is the market place. What’s the best alternative?

That's just it, Facebook is kinda the default option, and almost everyone has an account there. It's why so many clubs arrange everything through a Facebook page.
Craigslist, cash converters
It might be that I’m looking at this from a US perspective. Craig’s list has been a bit rough when I’ve tried it. Scammy and shadier people. I hope you’ve had better experiences here than me.
I found cash converters out of the UK. Is that correct? It seemed comparable to a pawn shop at first glance.

WhatsApp? The instant messenger boomers use on their phones?
Damn, who saw that coming.
In most of Europe WhatsApp is synonymous with text messaging.
Also in South Asia and the Middle East.
Yeah, the other instant messenger owned by Facebook

well Facebook still owns them and will own them when they all switch to instagram reels like America wants them to do
Sadly Elon Musk remains a threat to us all.
Isn't whatsapp for old people? Drag uses Discord instead. It's not great, but at least it doesn't hack your phone.
As much as I dislike Whatsapp and love Discord. Private messages in Whatsapp are encrypted while Discord messages are entirely collected
