So you're the artist of the "sadboi/catboi" image. You might be referring to that weird name the folder your image made it in, yes? The "OP is a fag" one?
That name, as well as all the other folder names in my favorites page are all idiotic non-sequiturs disguising sorted folders. The "OP is a fag" folder is for video game art that I like.
I legitimately favorited your artwork, because I find it to be very adorable. That dumb folder name has no bearing on this, don't worry.

I'm just kinda stupid and vindictive like that with names... because "standing out" is a thing with me... for better or worse, or the very worse. And yeah... about those hidden comments, they're all shitty relics of an even fucking shittier past, and I never want to see them again. You are the first commenter here in quite a while. Not that anything significant is hidden in there, and not that I did anything truly horrible... here at least, but I just want to "move on" or something... It be just like that.

tl;dr: Don't worry, I do like your drawing and favorited it, the oddly vicious folder name is meaningless (like my existence lul).

That's perfectly understandable, but... shit. I can imagine how awful something like that must feel. Now, I do happen to have a "favorites" folder of things that I find ridiculously bad... but only those REALLY blatantly awful and anger inducing ones, not ever something out of spite and/or just because "they aren't perfect at drawing". (It's the "This is why Kurt Kobain killed himself to death" folder, by the way, not the very first one... that one ONLY includes the greatest shit ever.)

In your case, I see absolutely nothing wrong with your art, at all. I find it quite nice, as a matter of fact. Honestly, no matter what, no one deserves to be treated this way, unless of course they specifically invite themselves that kind of trouble, but you never did anything to warrant this.

Unfortunately there's not much I can help out with except give you a mere simple advice; to ignore and not take personally any such blatant insults towards you, and of course, most importantly, to be able to tell apart insults and legitimate criticism. It's not inherently insulting if someone points out something they find to be a flaw in your artwork, or something they find that you can improve and/or correct on, but it all comes down to their tone and how they present said criticism. I believe that legitimate criticism should NEVER go for offenses or attacks towards the person, in any sort of way.

But yeah, that's all I can contribute with... and yes, you are very much welcome. Long live Cube-chan.

Nah, you're not. Honest mistake, one you can't be blamed for at all. Who would be able to tell a folder from another with such stupid names like that? A self-induced insider joke thing I have going there.
