For our trans/enby comrades: if you don't know someone's preferred pronouns is referring to them as they/them/theirs appropriate?

Title. I am kinda wary of this because i don't want to misgender anyone but I am not sure how to refer to those who you don't know the preferred pronouns of? TIA, comrades!

A trans friend of mine goes by the maxim of:

"everyone's a they 'til they otherwise say".

It's cute and it works.
