non-fan
Lacks particular interest
A non-fan is someone who isn't a fan of something—neither enthusiastic nor particularly interested.
The term usually appears in discussions distinguishing devoted followers from casual observers or the indifferent: The movie's appeal to non-fans suggests it transcends the source material.
Unlike a hater or critic, a non-fan simply lacks enthusiasm rather than harboring active dislike.
