If i remember correctly, they got banned at the same time they banned all the gender critical and radfem subs. Somehow they caved in to the backlash on that particular sub. Perhaps there was a particular admin who wanted to remove all wrongthink and tried to sneak that extra ban through but they got caught and had to undo it. I have a hard time believing that if all the admins came together and agreed to ban detrans that they would suddenly change their minds because people complained.

Bardfinn has had a persistent hateboner for it and has wanted to take it over or some such yeah.

The argument that I believed worked was that banning r/detrans was transphobic because it was an issue inherently rooted in the transgender community.
