Somebody on reddit says the ferries protect you from dragon, and apparently it's something 'obviously official', yet I cannot find it mentioned anywhere in the rules, neither in questions on wikicarpedia. Does dragon fear the water tiles or what? How does a ferry protect you? What am I missing here?

No, this isn't true and is likely a misunderstanding borne from a spelling error. Meeples are protected by the fairy, but not ferries. Meeples can also be protected by staying in the castles from the Bridges, Castles, and Bazaars expansion.

Replace "ferrie" by "fairy" and it will be correct!

Is this what happens when someone gets the rules over the phone with a noisy connection?

Yeah, but OP spelled fairy correctly before in the post, so when he then said ferrie I thought he's not talking about fairy anymore. That confused me, I really thought I misread something in the ferries rules lol
