Been using VK for about a month now, and it’s basically Russia’s answer to Facebook meets Spotify. It’s this massive social network where you can do pretty much everything – chat with friends, watch videos, listen to music, and even join video calls. Not gonna lie, it took me a while to figure out where everything was since the interface is kinda busy.
The messaging part works really well – you can chat one-on-one or set up group chats with basically unlimited people. And the video calls are completely free with no time limits, which is pretty sweet. There’s also this whole entertainment side with music streaming and video clips that’s pretty addictive once you get into it. Plus, they’ve got these community groups for literally everything you can think of.
Look, if you’ve got friends or family in Russia or Eastern Europe, this app’s probably gonna be super useful for you. It’s definitely got more features than you’ll probably ever use, which is both good and bad. The English translation is a bit wonky in places, and some features feel a bit overwhelming at first. But once you get the hang of it, it’s actually pretty decent for keeping in touch and entertainment stuff.
