That's how I read it - I'm honestly not seeing where this other interpretation is coming from. *confused*

I just suspect that while grimdark endings may well be more popular in the OP's fandoms, the "trend" of "disparaging" happy endings only exists in the OP's imagination. I admit, this is based on my own experience--I've never actually seen happy endings disparaged purely because they were happy, and I've never observed a shortage of cute and fluffy fic. I do, however, see lots of demands of "there needs to be more fluff!" on the grounds that "real life is depressing enough"--and meanwhile, right here in this thread, there is plenty of disparagement, not just of dark/gritty/sad endings but of the people who write them.

You seem to be laboring under the misapprehension that OP is talking only about fanfic, in which "fluff" and happy endings are a more accepted part of the fandom culture. Canon material, though? The trend definitely is present in force.
