Trello launched from day zero, in Sep 2011, without IE8 support. At that point, IE <= 8 was about 80% of the IE crowd[1]. FogCreek said that IE8 support was coming, but it never materialized, and they eventually just passed on.
So the truth is that Trello always stayed pretty much ahead of the IE usage curves, so that most people with IE willing to use it, simply couldn't.
I guess this is the reason why they don't have many IE users in the first place.
