You are mixing things a bit. People from russian forum prefere less 
bugs. And utf8 implementation of lazarus brought them alot. This is the 
difference.

And btw, I've never heard from them that they dislike utf8. Alhough they 
have problems especially with retrieving ansi data from their databases.
