I’ve wondered that myself, but I’ve come to the conclusion that transgender individuals seem to value their privacy more than the average person. This is all due to increased cyber bullying to them online. Linux is well known for being free from data collection (except Ubuntu) and corporate greed, so it would make sense if this was an operating system of choice.
Honestly, I started using Linux years before fully accepting myself as trans and coming out. I match the stereotype it seems (but I don’t work in IT, I’m just a desktop user) but I honestly have no idea if the two are related in any way? I just like Linux!
(My current laptop is a refurb ThinkPad T490, oh God).
Wtf does trans have to do with anything?
What does Arch have to do with anything?
What do computers have to do with it anyway?
It is (at this point) an old meme.

It is similar to this meme too.

No clue. I guess they are the type that likes to have things overly complicated.
