VK users can message each other publicly or privately, edit these messages,[3] create groups, public pages, and events; share and tag images, audio, and video; and play browser-based games.[4]
As of August 2018[update], VK had at least 500 million accounts.[5] As of November 2022, it was the sixth most popular website in Russia.[6] The network was also popular in Ukraine until it was banned by the Verkhovna Rada in 2017.[7]
