Windows Server 2019 is just the server version of Windows 10 1809. In my
testing it works without any issues.

My recommendation is for the FAQ to state:

"Cygwin can be expected to run on all modern, released versions of Windows.
Since January 2016 this includes Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and
all later versions."
