What is this?

FoSS social network kit, that allows you to spin a social network similar to vk[wiki]. Also a """fork""" (idea-wise, implementation-wise it's original), or, spiritual successor, if you will, of a scriptkiddie piece of shit - openvk classic.

Is it another SaaS/hosted instance?

Yes and No. No it's not a SaaS, but yes, it has a hosted instance. You can spin one yourself.

Is it free?

Yes, but with attribution, you must link back to OpenVK either by link or by an OpenVK button.
