      Is Windy pro-Russian? Why are they using the old and russified version of Moldova's capital name?

        @Rares Hi, displayed names are taken from OpenStreetMaps data and OSM is created by community. In the most cases the correct names are shown. We will investigate more the name of Moldavian capital and its translations in our database. Possibly it is just outdated name.

            @S-G-17 Hi, yes, unfortunately, our maps are based on quite old OpenStreetMaps labels. We have an ongoing update project, we hope that within a few months it should be done and the labels should reflect current OpenStreetMap data.
