Search in VK opens only for pages with address containing 'photo[NUMBER]_[NUMBER]' https://vk.com/@11hashtags-poisk-foto

upd: u can add https://www.imgops.com/ too

Adding VK would be a special case because of its limitations regarding the source image, so I would only consider adding it if the search results are valuable. If anyone has experience with VK reverse image search, please check if it can reliably identify faces across different VK accounts and share your findings.

Can't say much about vk's search, but I can vouch for the site itself being a host to a great manifold of niche communities, aggregating and archiving tons of content and information, much of which then often becomes lost to the rest of the internet. Too bad they don't have an actual photo search besides this lifehack with image ids. I wonder what sort of hash they use and if it could be replicated.

Well, anyway, while looking up if there were any services specifically for that site, I found this Russian face search service: search4faces.com (EN page seems broken for me). Can't confirm how well it works, I don't have any mugshots with me, and it refuses to take non-facial pictures.
