non-fans

Those not invested

Non-fans are people who aren't fans of something—those without particular enthusiasm for a band, sports team, show, or celebrity.

The term often appears when distinguishing audience segments: The movie appeals to non-fans of the genre.

Unlike critics or haters, non-fans are simply neutral or uninterested rather than actively opposed.
