I think possibly an important difference here is that Gaiman was fairly upfront and specific about what was going on and how it was going to be portrayed, and then the fans are responding to it in a certain way on their own. Whereas Rowling went out and said Dumbledore was super gay, and then the follow-up was a bit of a wet fart.

I haven't seen the Fantastic Beasts movies or followed that fandom, but I feel like this is accurate.

Yep, this. It might not have been so bad if Rowling hadn't made a big deal about Dumbledore being gay and gotten fan expectations stirred up for real representation.

Yes, and Rowling stans making excuses about how Dumbledore was really super-great representation.
