I'm one of those oddballs who's never joined, but I'm in the market for a new to me bike, and it seems like all the action is on marketplace. Am I screwed, or is there an effective workaround ?

Edit: Not US. There are local alternatives that I know about, but they are worse, please answer question as asked ! Basically I'm thinking of alternative software ala FreeTube, or a way of spoofing facebook to make a dummy account only to be used for this and if so what precautions to take...

#shopstr is a growing alternative which uses nostr for posting instead of Facebook. Unfortunately not as many people but I always check there first and list there preferentially. You can use any payment method with is but most people use Bitcoin lightning, which has some privacy pros and cons but certainly more private than Facebook.
