Comment OP of this secret but not the JKR one here. I have seen people say that about Gaiman's work, but I think the extra loud dislike of HP comes from a combo of HP at its height being more ubiquitous than any of Gaiman's individual works over time, and that for so many (more) people, HP was what first got them into fandom, or reading for pleasure at all, so a lot of people were and are really defensive of HP on those grounds in ways that felt inescapable if you disliked or grew to dislike it.

Plus, while there were definitely people going around identifying very strongly with Delirium or Death, there wasn't a whole fandom/merchandizing blitz that made people, even relatively casual fans, identify with Gaiman's worldbuilding in the way the endless (but not Endless) merch and quizzes and so on encouraged people to wear HP House scarves and put "proud Ravenclaw" in their blog bio, or whatever.

And there are still people who haven't heard all the horrible details, or even anything at all, about Gaiman. Which is also true of JKR, especially for people who aren't LGBT+, in fandom, or in the UK, but less so; the Gaiman news is just over a year old and more awful stuff is still being discovered now (and Gaiman is still being a POS, but so is JKR.)
