Made instance ownerId not required

[Rexios80]

VRChat creates public instances of popular worlds that have no owner

I believe you, I just want to see it, as I haven't seen it in the wild. Can you please post an example or screenshot of output?

Also this is weird, if i try to make up an imaginary instance e.g. /instances/{worldId}: it shows myself as owner... How did you get it to not be present at all? 😅

One of my friends really like cancer publics

I'm pretty sure these instances are created by VRChat itself and not any user. They do this so that there are always instances of popular worlds open.
