When I things in this way I'm not looking for either. I'm generally trying to minimise my environmental impact via landfill. Helping others at the same time is a bonus. I'm not looking to make money or friends/community.
Not that there is anything wrong with people that are of course. Different folks have different priorities.
Yeah, if I'm giving something away, it's because I have decided it doesn't really hold any value for me anymore, nor would it be worth the time and hassle to try and sell it.
So I'll give it away and if anyone thinks it's worth the time and effort to sell it, that's not for me to decide. Once it is out of my hands, it is no longer mine.
