I like to imagine this as just a shitpost tool where you can just paste any text anyone types to get a screenshot like this and instantly invalidate their argument
Or maybe that's what this already is and I just WHOOSHed myself

You acknowledged them which was great, and then immediately turned around and started re-educating them. It was a valuable message to get out into the world, but a victim recounting their experiences is NOT the audience you should be trying to educate.
Just say "I'm sorry that happened to you, some people are scumbags, being cis is totally fine" and redouble your zeal to spread that message in a more appropriate setting.
Edit: To clarify, I'm not saying I doubt your intentions. What I am saying is that it wasn't very tactful or self-aware.
Also:
pointing out that it's not universal or even the norm
That's called "denying someone else's experience." Again, it's about the worst way you can possibly comfort someone who is talking about when they were hurt. It doesn't matter if you think it's common: it happened to them. Even if they were the only person in the world that had happened to, knowing that wouldn't make them feel better.
The thing that's most alarming to me every time I hear someone say "cis isn't offensive" is the complete lack of self-awareness, from groups that should really know better. But humans are humans so it just is what it is.
While I agree with the greater point you're making, in context, you're responding to someone who said "I've been referred to as cis as an insult" by saying "no you haven't." It shouldn't take too long of a step back to realize that's not a great thing to do.
So you're saying the problem is that it's infeasible to distribute the source code, which they already distribute to all of their developers with no problem, while there are numerous platforms that will host it for you for free if it's public FOSS?...
That feels remarkably intellectually honest. I doubt if I would have replied again in that case, so I don't know why anyone was downvoting this
Forgive me for not reading all 2500 documents, but I haven't heard anything to suggest there was a bunch of sinister stuff in there -- and there's nothing implicitly evil about having docs leaked.

Exactly the same here. Since I swipe type, I have to imagine that would be a nightmare on Dvorak with all the vowels clustered together.
I use Dvorak, but it has nothing to do with statistics for me. When I switched to Dvorak, it felt more comfortable on my hands. My typing speed is essentially the exact same, for example, and I don't think you could find a measurable difference depending on which I use. But qualitatively -- it feels more comfortable.
While the conversion is appreciated, there's no reason to be an ass about it. OP labeled it, so it's not like it was confusing or making unnecessary assumptions about the audience. So really you're the one who just comes across as completely culturally insensitive.
At the point where they are running a custom ROM, this feels like a bad faith argument. It's like claiming someone running Linux is clearly a Microsoft supporter when they bought a laptop preinstalled with Windows and replaced the OS day 1.
Exactly what alternative are you proposing? They don't buy any hardware at all? It materializes out of thin air?
