<you> and <one>
As subjects, either can be used:
Can you/one camp in the forest?
As object, <you> is the normal pronoun:
They fine you for parking offences.
<you> is more common in ordinary conversation. It is a more "friendly" pronoun and implies that the speaker can imagine himself in such a position.
<one> is more impersonal and less often used, though the possessive <one's> is quite common:
It's easy to lose one's/your way in Venice.
The correct possessive form must be used:
One has to show one's pass at the door.
You have to show your pass at the door.
If instead of <one> or <you> we use a singular noun, the possessive adjective will obviously be <his> or <her>:
One must do one's best.
A traveller has to guard his possessions.
<they>
<they> is used as subject only. <they> can mean "people":
they say = people say, it is said
They say it is going to be a cold winter.
<they> can also mean "the authority concerned", i.e. the governmnent / the local council / one's employers / the police etc.
They want to make this a one-way street.

dlatego "they" jest często najbardziej odpowiednie.
Kiedy byłem młody świat był prostrzy w podręczniku do biologii pisano, że podstawową komórką społeczeństwa jest rodzina, składająca się z mężczyzny i kobiety.
Dzisiaj w brytyjskich szkołach uczy się, że rodzina to kobieta i mężczyzna lub dwie kobiety, dwoje mężczyzn, gorzej jest jak tatuś kiedyś był kobietą a mamusia tatusiem... - 2 lata temu zmieniany: 2 lata temu

Non-binary or genderqueer is an umbrella term for gender identities that are not solely male or female—identities that are outside the gender binary.
Non-binary people may identify as an intermediate or separate third gender, identify with more than one gender, no gender (agender), or have a fluctuating gender identity (gender fluid).
Some non-binary or genderqueer people use gender-neutral pronouns. In English, usage of singular "they", "their" and "them" is the most common.
Taka ciekawostka, bowiem termin non-binary pojawia sie w anglojezycznych artykulach prasowych, odnosnie pisowni, to slowo jest pisane raczej z myslnikiem albo razem. - 2 lata temu zmieniany: 2 lata temu
