Is Craigslist dying? (lemm.ee)

I went to Craigslist in my local area for the first time in awhile. I used to like "best of" Craigslist because some of them were great, there still are some, but its just not the same. A community I used to visit had about half the number of posts as I remember, and of jobs and things for sale, I would say roughly half the posts are just bottom feeding companies autoposting one post a day.

Is Craigslist going to be another web 1.0 app that just dies off? Is it the same in your area?

Craig himself is long since retired from doing stuff and they never seemed to be interested in working with other apps because most of them just scrape and don't add value to CL, but the Fediverse can, if there was a filter for the spam. What do you think?

I swear I just saw and responded to someone asking this exact same question on another post.
