When everyone is saying the same thing you know that it is time for a change

Those of us that are sellers on Poshmark are not happy with any of the changes this man has made.

Ever since Namsun Kim joined Poshmark in October 2025, many users have felt a shift and not in a good way. What was once a community-driven marketplace built on trust and integrity now feels increasingly focused on monetization, AI, and corporate priorities. As a founder of Naver, his leadership has brought major changes, but for many sellers, those changes feel “seller-hostile.” Across the platform, users are reporting declining sales and lower engagement, with longtime sellers saying Poshmark feels almost unrecognizable compared to what it used to be. The deeper integration with Naver has only added to the concern: is the platform still built for its community, or has it moved on from it?
