I just mostly look and keep an eye on that atrocious r/actual_detrans and try to expose them for what they really are. I've been banned from r/detrans and am no longer welcome on basically most subs because of being a labeled "transphobe." Aside from that, not really I'm looking into other platforms and probably going to start thinking on how to funnel people to s/detrans until the site's ready.

I saw your post on detrans and it really moved me. I know brave is thrown around a lot, but I think it was brave to post. You exposed a lot of your vulnerability and trauma, knowing the negativity it would be met with, bc its so important to speak truth and to try to help others. Even I'm not able to make myself vulnerable (talking about my experiences and trauma) like that to anyone. I've dealt with it all, but I just adopted the "its nobody's business" attitude bc I don't like the vulnerable position it puts me in. I admire you for having the courage to do that. I think your post is actually what put the nail in the coffin for me at Reddit. How could I be ok using a platform that treats women that way?

Its ridiculous to say they welcome detrans people but not GC thought, bc detransitioning is going to cause most people to be GC, esp the women. I think this is why TRAs are so threatened by you guys. I hate to think of the direction the detrans sub will be going in. Just another "elevate trans people at the expenes of everyone else", just like every other sub on Reddit now. I think its awesome that you are trying to help others in similar situations and I wish you the best of luck w/ your platform.

I've read those too. There was one including a video of the really young man talking about his own experience with AGP. I was crying during parts. Honesty goes a long way.
