How anonymous or not is Freemarket vs OpenBazaar?

I was very disappointed to read that in order to sell something on OpenBazaar, you have to set up a node and keep it running all the time.  If your node goes offline, so do your item listings apparently:

That seems like a potentially huge privacy/security hole and it's not what I'd considered decentralized.


I think soon a lot of coins will have decentralized market places.. I could name a few that aren't being discussed in this thread.

Which are there besides OpenBazaar and FreeMarket?
