There is only one thing here that matters: options to deliver so that we can support the communities better

Everything else is basically FB Marketplace, Offerup, nextdoor, craiglist.

If you can make an app that enough people use is questionable, let alone be profitable is another thing.

Whats the plan to make $?

So I think there are many different marketplaces, but I don't personally find them as useful because of a few reasons - when I'm a seller, the buyers are flaky; as a buyer, I'm worried about being scammed (and it actually happened to me once).

Delivery is an option that we're contemplating now. If we were to build it, it'll be in next few months to try it out.

On the monetization front, we're thinking introducing in-app payment processing and adding delivery options to take commissions. I'm not sure how excited the users are going to be yet tho, so that'd be the challenge
