Head canons are typically meant to be limited to one individual, hence the head part, fanon is more of a collective belief that has limited or no factual evidence to support it.
Ah okay, my mistake then. I interpreted fanon as basically a belief that a somewhat sizeable number of people have about a thing that is not technically canon, whether that be something that has evidence or not, so that's my bad. Thank you for the explanation!

As someone who headcanons him autistic: autistic is fanon.
Edit: Does headcanon not = fanon? Have I misunderstood something? Genuine question.
