We've tested their system inside and out. We've uploaded 1000s more products than any other store. OpenBazaar is garbage and requires both parties to be on OpenBazaar to shop.
Okay, I accept your rant. But I was a bit surprised because in the link I provided in the last post I read that OpenBazaar had addressed this criticism using IPFS.
We've contacted the team years ago and they ignored all the help to improve that system. Lets wait for somebody else to come up with something better.
Well, the system is open source and can be forked. That's not a criticism to you, but to others who want to improve it.
Also system was too slow. Old Laptop? R. PI? You must be joking and never used their system in a real world scenario.
I don't know the merchants' perspective, only the perspective of a consumer sometimes searching at OB and then closing it again because there are not enough products in my region.

I run it generally from an old machine from 2013 with 3 GB RAM. It performs not lightning fast, but not slow enough to not be able to be run permanently, even if I run it in parelell to other heavyweight applications.
What I wonder however if there is no command line app which could be used by merchants to minimize resource usage. Technically that should be no problem, OpenBazaar is normally working very similar to BitTorrent.
