HN readers mostly link Sharetribe as a hosted marketplace-building product, and cite its academy articles on two-sided marketplaces and payments. The comments discuss the product more than the writing.

What Hacker News says?
Seems like there are two ideas here. 1. A way to keep your data/parts of your business after you've been kicked off a platform. I say parts because amazon is much more than just OMS, CMS, support platform. 2. Tools to build a marketplace. Which, besides being open source, how is this idea different than https://www.sharetribe.com/ ?

(Not an employee, just a satisfied user.) Of course that turns this from a technical problem to a marketing and sales problem, which may be less appealing.
