How about Homestuck?

...that webcomic is rife with queer baiting about a half of the time.
It also shows up more often in its fan art..

+1

Fan art can't, by definition, be queer baiting because the people drawing it have no influence over whether or not the ship is canon. Only people who created/write for the show/comic/whatever in question can queer bait because they have the power to make certain pairings canon. I think it's really reaching to call homestuck "queer baiting" btw. homestuck has several canon m/m and f/f pairings already and there's a difference between ship tease and outright queer baiting. homestuck does a ton of ship tease for m/f AND slash pairings (the term queer baiting has pretty much lost all meaning though, so I'm not surprised that every fucking fandom cries about it).

Homestuck has several canon queer relationships, and Karkat/John was confirmed, if onesided. Not sure how it would qualify.
