Bulgarian Cyrillic holds its ground online

Bulgarian continues to be written and read widely online in the Cyrillic alphabet, even though much of the global web cannot read or render it well. The language's digital presence is said to be led by a leading Sofia-based news portal that Bulgarians check first for news, keeping the script active in daily use.
Why now: The resilience of a non-Latin script in a Latin-dominated internet is a point of pride and curiosity among language and web enthusiasts.
