I was following this discussion for some time now. I regularly use Wikidata on Chrome and always got following languages (for at least last year):
- English
- Serbian
- Croatian
- Bosnian
Here is how it looks:

All of above languages are in my Chrome's list of accepted languages although I've never explicitly added any. Probably coming from those "Don't translate Bosnian" (for example) rules that Chrome shows. I still haven't checked the codebase to see where the list of languages is coming from.
All this time I wasn't aware there is actually big issue with Serbian. Only realized now while trying on FF (which I use regularly, but not for wiki editing). When some Wikidata item is opened, I get:
- English
- српски (autonym name for Serbian in Cyrillic script)
- srpski (autonym name for Serbian in Latin script)
- Albanian
Expanding list of languages and searching for "Serbian" shows following items as well:
- Serbian
- Serbian (Cyrillic script)
- Serbian (Latin script)
| Short list of languages, initially shown | Expanded list of language |
|---|---|
| F14067144: wikidata-langs-on-mozilla.PNG | F14067146: wikidata-langs-on-mozilla-expanded.PNG |
That is actually five entries for Serbian in total, one general and two for Cyrillic and Latin each. I haven't even tried editing those entries with autonym names. Autonym name entries seem to be coming from some external (from Wikidata POV) service and opening list of all languages shows entries from Wikidata, which are populated and make sense.
