Description

I'd like to create memes using russian, but cyrillic symbols are displayed incorrectly (any symbol is replaced by square with a cross inside it) or don't displayed at all.

Is there any way to add cyrillic symbols support?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how memes are rendered in the plugin, locate the text drawing code using Go's image/font libraries, and add support for Cyrillic fonts by ensuring proper font file inclusion and text encoding.
