Dear guys,

how can i add more character support to PostgreSql 9.6?
I need to also store some information in Cyrillic, for Russian users.

Can more characters coexist in the same database?

Thank you!

utf-8 should be able to store just about any character.

Or there's about four different Cyrillic-specific character sets
available already:
