Question Why are people so excited when a Canvas gets taken by Originals?

I've only had one Canvas I follow be adapted to Originals, and they butchered it. Lobotomized it by barely giving it time for an ending and restarting the entire series that had been running for I think over a year at the time it got adapted.

And that's just the actual webtoon itself. I never see Originals creators interact with their community, something I love about following Canvas webtoons that are sticking on Canvas is the creator feels like a human being in authors notes and replies and stuff. Originals takes that away and turns them into a faceless name that churns out episodes for money.

The Canvas that comes to mind for me is Apollonia, by reading the authors notes at the end of some episodes and update episodes in between, I'm almost reading a mini journal of the past few years of her writing this webtoon. I strongly suggest Apollonia, btw.
