I don't know what is the specifics as to why, but when I see a poster or something, I can instinctively feel if it is made with Canvas. I don't know if it is the font, colours, how generic the templates are, or if it is the stock images, but I instantly feel a repulsion towards said graphic design. It doesn't matter what style or vibe it's going for, but I instantly hate it.

If you check my SoundCloud all of the track art I've used I made myself using Canva. Even I think it's starting to look same-y, but it's more interesting than having no art and cheaper than paying an artist. I say the cheap part because I'm still making essentially no money from music, so Canva lets me put out something interesting with no previous graphical design knowledge or history.

So, to me, it's a blessing and a curse. I can whip up some quick art (in an hour, sometimes two), and save money as well. The curse is people look down on Canva and I feel like there's an upper limit I haven't reached with the web based editing.

If you make that a fully qualified URL, people will be able to click on it.

Not sure what you mean by qualified. Edit: I looked it up and it seems like adding the http part, but why would that prevent someone from clicking the link? For me it worked fine.

Might depends on your chosen interface/browser.

It's not a URL without the schema. Your app might choose to turn anything that kinda looks like part or a URL into a link, but that's unusual behavior.
