How to use selenium?

Question

Python

I am writing a VK bot that should parse data from the site using selenium and return it to the user, can this bot then be uploaded to the server along with the selenium script so that the emulation of actions in the browser is emulated on the server, and only then this data is sent to the user if so how to do it better and more practical?

Hello, of course you can :)
I personally use a bunch of Python3 + Selenium + Geckodriver + Firefox for such purposes (launch in headless mode).
And everything works fine on Linux server distributions. In my case it is Ubuntu Server 18.04.
