That's the new version of "it works on my computer" as an answer to people reporting bugs.

If you are selling second hand, use a different platform. No one is making you use marketplace.

You just lost access to 90--95% of buyers/sellers. How is it going?

There are online portals, calendars, and even emails that notify parents of students and events.

Great! All I need to do now is to convince the school to use them because beat me: I'm not in charge of their communication systems…

You can call you friends and find out how they are doing. You can also email to keep in touch

You must have misread. I do exactly that.

Stop posting everything about yourself and the internet and you should be telling your friends the same.

You must have misread: at no point did I write that I was posting anything. But I certainly don't dictate my friends what they should and shouldn't do.

You are just making excuses as to why you need it in your life and I have never had to use it for anything since its inception.
