What evidence do you have for the use of cyrillic within Kosovo? As Ifar as I can tell from outside even within Serbia cyrillic use isn't 100% (see for example https://www.b92.net/ ). The Kosovo government's website http://kryeministri-ks.net/?page=3,1 doesn't use it, and the Serbian government uses both http://www.srbija.gov.rs/?change_lang=sr .

Kosovo (Albanian: Kosova/Kosovë; Serbian: Косово]) is a disputed territory and partially recognised state[11][12] in Southeastern Europe that declared independence from Serbia in February 2008.
Kosovo's constitution says official are both: albanian and serbian. If serbian i using two alphabets, then name of Kosovo (country) should be: Kosovë / Косово / Kosovo.
BTW OSM for Serbia is using cyrillic script. -

I asked for examples of use of cyrillic within Kosovo and you didn't provide any.
What script the Serbian OSM community is using is irrelevant; also note that https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/2088990 has "name:sr=Косово и Метохија" it's perfectly possible to create a map using this data (as is being discussed at https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=30533 ) -

Open thread about it in the forum, and it will be discussed.

Here is a perfectly reasonable place to ask questions.

Yap, but, there is no notification. I should search edit after edit. Personal message is ok?

You should get an email notification for every message here - not sure why that's not working. Maybe go to osm.org and check the addtess there?

Google is not OSM, and in addition to that, in the territory of Kosovo, Serbian is used in latin form, also in new laws, street signs etc. OSM works with the reality on the ground, and the reality on the ground is that there´s the rRepublic of Kosovo with the administration in Prishtina, and there serbian latin is used.
Best regards,
