Can I create my own OpenVK instance?
Yes! And you're very welcome to.
However, OVK makes use of Chandler Application Server. This software requires extensions, that may not be provided by your hosting provider (namely, sodium and yaml. this extensions are available on most of ISPManager hostings).
If you want, you can add your instance to the list above so that people can register there.
