I have .rc file with UTF16 LE encoding, and Fork does not display diff for it. (VS Code does.)

Somehow git doesn't recognise the content as text.

You should to add *.rc text to .gitattributes file in the root of your repository. You can find more info there: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Attributes

*.rc text

content, but this not working (still no diffs).

But after adding this gitattribute when I discard changes in file (via Fork if that important), content of file displayed in wrong enconding:
