I am aware. But that makes 2 out of how many?

Look, i'm not trying to attack a group here. I'm just having the habit of calling out bullshit when i see it. That there is a larger proportion of trans people in FOSS is a myth. It's based on memes that have gotten out of control.

In FOSS specifically, the opposite has been true for a long time and there has been a severe lack of diversity. That has thankfully improved a lot and the environment has now become much more colorful and has adapted to the reality of the general population. But that's all there is to it. There is no significant overrepresentation, at least I haven't found anything that would prove that.
