Switching to Linux means you might have to say goodbye to certain proprietary software and games. Applications like Adobe Creative Suite
as someone whose job mostly involves Adobe programs and whose many hobby is gaming, I think I'll stick with a Windows with all the AI crap disabled via group policies and O&O Shutup 😐 For now...
damn, that was the first IM service I used, I still remember its logo from ~2001
- Abzu - hated the underwater movement controls
- Deponia & MechaNika - the protagonist is an asshole
- Papers Please - too stressful (works well as a piece of art, but wasn't an enjoyable experience)

OpenStreetMap is a joy to behold and fun to edit too, but for me where it really falls behind is its route planner :/ Google Maps lets us plan with public transport, shows multiple route options with journey times, and lets us edit walking paths by just dragging the line. OSM desktop doesn't seem to have any of these features.
My high school class was in mid-'00s, and there was one girl who very much had that butch/tomboy vibe going on. I drifted away from the class, so only heard rumours after graduation, but I think she never actually came out as anything. On the other hand three others of us (two of whom, including myself, I never would have guessed back in high school) eventually came out as various shades of queer :D
This is unfortunately not the case for most trans people. I think it's quite rare that a trans person would consistently be able to pass (=blend in) before HRT.
There are some trans people who are also intersex, which is the condition when one's biological sex (without medical intervention) doesn't fit neatly in either the male or female boxes. But most trans people aren't intersex and about half of intersex people aren't trans.
Edit: But I do agree with your main point, there's simply no way an app like this could identify trans people with the vast range of facial features humans have. It will both exclude many cis women and allow many trans women, as Giggle did a few years ago.
