Stop updating the fav_string attribute on posts. The column still exists on the table, but is no longer used or updated. Like the pool_string in7d503f08, the fav_string was used in the past to facilitate `fav:X` searches. Posts had a hidden fav_string column that contained a list of every user who favorited the post. These were treated like fake hidden tags on the post so that a search for `fav:X` was treated like a tag search. The fav_string attribute has been unused for search purposes for a while now. It was only kept because of technicalities that required departitioning the favorites table first (340e1008e) before it could be removed. Basically, removing favorites with `@favorite.destroy` was slow because Rails always deletes object by ID, but we didn't have an index on favorites.id, and we couldn't easily add one until the favorites table was departitioned. Fixes #4652. See https://github.com/danbooru/danbooru/issues/4652#issuecomment-754993802 for more discussion of issues caused by the fav_string (in short: write amplification, post table bloat, and favorite inconsistency problems).
