I also have the same problem and so far I am just writing most of my tasks in English as a workaround. But today I saw an article in Russian render perfectly with Whitney in my Pocket app. Turns out Whitney does have Cyrillic support: https://www.typography.com/fonts/whitney/features/whitney-language-support

The same story here. It’s relevant for Ukrainian language too and other Cyrillic languages.

Solution is simple: Whitney has Cyrillic support and font is free for personal use, so you can download and install it to your system.

But probably someone from devs can also update “font-face” source.
