As this project appears to be fairly unknown in the fediverse still, I'd like to use this opportunity to advertise Flohmarkt. This Fediverse equivalent of Facebook Marketplace already has some instances up and running - see here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances

In my local area government interrogates selling boards about my data what I sell and such. I wonder if this could be forever resistant to authorities provided somebody actually uses it?

How do I tell someone on the bus to check out this website?

"Just go to fedi.markets"

I don't see an issue. With any service on the Internet you direct people to the URL of an instance not the underlying code. If they saw "powered by flohmarkt" and asked what that was, I'd say it was German for "flea market" and I imagine they would be satisfied with that.

I would host an instance if it's working well enough - has anyone done it yet?

Will keep an eye on this, but there is nothing too local here (No, I can't host something myself). Given how the specification says there should be a location and radius per instance, some admins are really slacking on putting that info in the description.
