The alternate ending is still the superior (and IMO canon) ending.

I’d still prefer they not throw away and waste Robin & Barney’s emotional growth, as well.

Isn't the alternative ending is "fan made", is it not?

If it was released by the official channel then you're right it's canon.

The alternate ending was official, and was released as a Special Feature on the DVD box set. So IMO it’s the canon ending, and the originally aired one was just a fever dream following a bad ‘sandwich’.
