Tell me, what are the generally accepted style-guides?
For example, Python has PEP8, is there something like this for C?
PS Who can tell if there is a translation into Russian of the C89 standard (it is also called ANSI C) somewhere?

No. Each project has its own guide.
The language has a very undeveloped and immature ecosystem and lacks many things that are required in other ecosystems, for example, there is not even a dependency manager.

Take a K&R2 book and the style that is used there. When you see "set K&R style" in editors, this will be it.
You can read this guy at

but he doesn't really fumble.
