Turkiye is the endonym, not the exonym.

Not anymore really, at least according to their preference. At a minimum, a capital T will prevent comedic errors like a head full of feathers.

I agree on the capital T. It's still Turkey to me.

Sure, but "turkey" is a bird, not a country. You at least have to write "Turkey" to be clear to English speakers. If you like, save Türkiye for your visits to the UN.

I agree on a capital T. Country names are proper nouns and should always be capitalised.
