This has the potential to age well (as all P2P creations do). My feedback is that more effort needs to be made on the ui/ux. Without looking at this thread, I'd have assumed it was a reddit-style board more than it is a marketplace. I also did not want to create an account, it would be much better to be able to see more of the functionality in action as a guest before being forced to setup an account, and generally I think that if guests can see more of the functionality before being require to setup an account, willingness to set one up increases. Just my 2 sats. Good luck with the project!

Your 2 sats are much appreciated! Thank you for stopping by, take a look and provide your feedback. True is that for now the marketplace is hosted as part of the SN platform and there's not much we can customize. However, all the posts and functionalities are visible for guests as for registered users. The only difference is that guests/anons pay x10² the fees a registered user would for posting and commenting. Registered users could also receive sats from community zaps if a wallet is attached.

For trading within the AGORA this does not matter much, as the payments for goods and services advertised could be managed out f the platform itself, this is at the discretion of buyers ad sellers. This makes me realize that in reality, there are not many functionalities to be offered apart to posting and commenting on threads. And that's what's required for trading.

To incentivize and make users more confident, we are also learning (especially from the marketplace here in BT) how an escrow service could be offered from trusted members. We are also letting users know about external platforms services like coibin, useful to orchestrate a trade with fewer risks.
