Because they're not actually serious about it. Management was selling Main St Shopping as an alternative channel for stores that were closed due to Covid restrictions. The pandemic is (hopefully) nearly over in the US, and Main St has just a few vendors. It's also just an objectively stupid idea. Running your own website is already very cheap, and there is always eBay, Amazon, Etsy, FB Marketplace, etc. If you use any of those other e-commerce sites, you're listing your products on a site that millions of people visit every day. If you use Arknet, you're listing your products on a site that a few dozen Tautachrome shareholders visit occasionally when they want to buy some beef jerky. I'm just not sure what I have to do at this point to communicate the idea that launching an e-commerce site in a market where there are dozens of highly entrenched e-commerce giants already operating is a bad idea.
