There's no way an open source market platform would work. But if it does, then I'll be amazed.

How come? 'Cause there's no advertising budget?

No, it's because of the community itself.

@P4ulin_Kbana if you are talking of a "platform" your are thinking thinks still form a central point of view.

Think more decentral here

Think of e.g. a lot of connected woocommerce instances and you get an idea of how a decentralized open source market "platform" could work.

decentralized server wide search and login has to work - that's it
