RebbYid “Curiosity, it’s common for frum men to wear see through white shirts. Is that tznius?”

See Rambam הלכות דעות · פרק חמישי · הלכה ט:
“ולא יהא בשרו נראה מתחת מדיו כמו בגדי הפשתן הקלים ביותר שעושים במצרים”

That would seem to be exactly what you’re talking about, although to be melamed zchus perhaps the Poskim are mechalek based on the opacity of the shirt in question
