All these shopping apps are going to become extortion apps pretty soon.

@gabriel I'm wondering what it would take to make something like DoorDash or UberEats, but decentralized. I see most restraunts have tablets dedicated for receiving orders. I wonder if those tablets can run as servers and you just have a simple protocol for placing orders. However, I think things might be too complicated for restaurant owners/managers to handle.
Let’s not underestimate the capability and drive of our great restaurant owners. With a bit of training and the right tools, they could absolutely manage this. It’s about empowering them, not burdening them. This could lead to better margins for them and better prices for consumers—a win-win! Let’s push for innovation and make it happen. America leads when we think big and refuse to be bogged down by 'complications'! #InnovationNation #DeliveryDAO
One can try to adapt Flohmarkt to that purpose:

I think a federated marketplace connected to a bigger network is a good idea.
the value of these things is precisely that you can just open the marketplace and pick the food you want. farming out the deliveries to other people is the easy part (and the already done one.) you could maybe string together a chain of co-ops for different states/cities, but this is going to start getting fuzzy since they all need to be compatible with the marketplace for it to make sense.
trying to atomize the marketplace makes it less useful tho.

Definitely worth giving some thought.
I imagine the only benefit centralization gives to the idea is that it makes handling money more straightforward.
Probably not an insurmountable problem though!
