Hi everybody!
Is it possible to write articles on dev.to in other languages, for example, in Russian?

Technically there are no limitations to use another language than English to write articles here.
If I were to write articles in a language other than English, Iβd also add a hashtag with the language to it, so youβll over time receive a nice collection of articles in this language.
I've seen some Japanese articles! If you go to your misc settings there is a feature (in beta) to choose which languages you would like to see in your feed.
Yup, and this functionality essentially works fine now.
The beta label is there sort of because we still have the chicken-egg problem of having enough content that we can provide value in other languages. There are also some caveats that we still need to improve on.
It might be nice to have a tag-like thing in which one can select the language of the article and then if the readers were able to filter based on that.

So I don't see why not. At worse it will just limit how many interactions your post gets. But if its what you are comfortable with, do it!
I know many Spanish-speaking developers who write articles in Spanish on DEV. And every now and then I see articles in French or Portuguese. As far as I know, there aren't any language restrictions.
