Even Blades and Vulcan, who were never technically villains but were in active opposition to the protagonist, received the most hate during this period. Also, I don't think there are any fans of sad Hiro in a business suit. Maybe I don't remember everything, but villainy only works for those secondary riders who were the original antagonists, like Baron and Kaixa.

It's been too long for me to remember Vulcan around the end of 01 and I haven't seen Revice or gotten to finishing Saber but I disagree on this not being an unpopular opinion, when Geats was airing, people really liked Tycoon's arc and the way he acted and fought being cool while under Kekera's manipulation. It's totally fine to not like these conflicts, but for Tycoon, I remember a lot of people finding him to have been rather underdeveloped until that point
