Wow. I've watched some of her YouTube posts over many years & never knew she was trans until today... I guess I missed the posts about it.
Her channel is usually low-tech stuff for my standards, or covers a lot of old stuff. So I tend to tune into her channel just for the memories of tinkering around with some old stuff.
Then I also find out she's over 50. She don't look it -- congratulations!
Mentioning she's trans:

WOW, I too have seen some of her videos and did not really know how old she was and I did not know how old she was either. I watched her video on slide rules that brought back memories and I still have mine displayed on my bookcase next to my old camera equipment.

I still use my slide rule for rough, quick calculations (I have some weird hobbies & curiosities).

Here's another person a little more famous that some may not have realized is trans -- Dr. Barbara Nash.
She's been on PBS, BBC, Discovery, History, & National Geographic TV channels discussing geology & volcanoes. But I suspected she was trans soon after I heard her voice.
Here's a clip of her on the show "How The Earth Was Made", episode 8 -- "Yellowstone".
