That's awesome! Can't wait for the Windows version.
Windows version won't see the light of day for a while, they said it would come out like 6 months ago. Why is there no Windows version? Makes zero sense to me. You guys want OpenBazaar to succeed and become the future of decentralized marketplaces, but don't release a version for the largest user base in the world? Ass backwards, developers that's a come on man!  You understand it is an open source project and developers are not being paid? What are you waiting for to contribute instead of whining? |

Please note this is still a beta and for users with some level of technical expertise. Confirmed. It was quite a dance to get it installed and running on Linux. Not ready for prime time. |

Sticking to minority platforms initially could be looked at as a good strategy. Let's be honest, Windows users are, on average, more likely to be computing ignorants (although I'd argue that Apple users are worse, anecdotally). Letting the majority of users loose on a beta version commerce network that's bound to end up used for contraband goods, it just sounds like there's too much potential for catastrophes and hysteria.

Does anyone know what language OpenBazaar is written in?
Wouldn't it be advantageous to develop it in something like Java with the Java Virtual Machines and Java byte code making it irrelevant what your platform is?

Windows Windows is 11th or last on the list....they're basically fucked out of the gate. so we have to wait for a long time to instal on windows because that is on at last option  OpenBazar is much waited projected and many eyes on it so let's see how that beta goes with Linux and OSX. |

I had a lot of "bla bla has no install candidate" errors and I didn't take the time to fix all these. It's still beta anyways. |

It's python, so essentially the same assumptions about how easy it is to use across different platforms (i.e. not quite as straightforward as Oracle or the Python development people would like you to think) |

No one is missing anything yet. The handful of vendors just have test merchandise. Will try to post a screen shot later.

I found no merchandise at all. What keywords did you use? |

It is relatively easy to set up a dual boot option for Linux on a Windows PC.
What about Grandma that just wants to sell her knitting creations for Bitcoin on Openbazaar, because her Grandson said it's the marketplace of the future?  She's just fucked, and has to resort to getting raped with fees on eBay I guess. Not only the 10% ebay fee's plus the paypal fees if she has not sold much on there she will have to wait 7days from when the estimated delivery of her sale gets to the buyer, its really good paypal holding your funds for 9+days. OB could not have come sooner it has been quite sometime in the making hasn't it? Lets hope it is worth the wait but not catering for windows is a bit of a dodgy move if i am honest. Even though i am in the 1.5% linux.. |

Keywords did not work for me either. A list of sellers and notaries eventually loaded on the right.

But not for me  Can you write some Store GUID so I (and other users) can add them manually? |

No real stuff for sale yet. Just things like this to test the software. Apparently temporary content that varies by time of day.   |
