Federated Shopping Platform
Federated Shopping Platform
One of the biggest benefits of Amazon IMO is it's homogeny. That is, It's ability to let you buy products from dozens of different categories, among thousands of vendors, with a unified shopping experience. For any competitor to replicate this would be a monumental task and it would probably take years to see profit. I think most of us want to see decentralization of retail and increased competition and the best way might be a decentralized shopping platform.
While not something that can easily be shoehorned into the Fediverse I think it's worth the effort to try. Sensitive info like addresses, order history, and payments would still have to be managed outside of the Fediverse, but I think it is feasible to have a federated platform that makes it easier to connect consumers with retailers.
