> It is by far a superior experience to Facebook, given how intuitive, fast and sleek it is.

It's riddled with childporn and sick/illegal stuff like that.

Is that's your definition of "superior experience"?

It's a crappy Facebook clone,always has been and always will.

If VK is riddled with "childporn and sick/illegal stuff", I have never come across it.

One could say the same about the internet in general, but that hasn't stopped you or I from using it.

Grammatical sidenote: It should be "you or me." An easy way to know whether to use "I" or "me" is to remove the other subject and see if it's correct. Like so:

"... but that hasn't stopped I from using it."

"... but that hasn't stopped me from using it."

This way it's easy to see which one is right.
