There are a few reasons but a big one is that people don’t have a pre-conceived notion of Wonder Woman whereas everyone has an idea of how Superman is ‘’supposed’’ to be and it was a lot easier to say that Zack Snyder must have fundamentally misunderstood the character or have an outright hatred for him rather than admitting that Their view of him was outdated. Zack Snyder’s involvement is a big factor too as people seem obsessed with blaming him for making thus universe ‘’dark and edgy’’ instead of considering that They simply don’t know the source material very well (That tweet where someone slammed him for Aquaman’s trident having five points instead of three, saying that it was to make it more extreme when Aquaman’s trident from the comics is the exact same is a perfect summary of that mentality). 

The films had flaws, no question about it, and I’ll happily concede that there are good reasons why some people don’t like Them but I still can’t see anything to justify the sheer level of hatred They and Zack Snyder have gotten.

I suspect aside from bias against zack snyder, maybe wonder woman have more humor than both MoS and BvS(which are very subtle and less obvious), thus why people find wonder woman are less grim compare than MoS and BvS. But hey the movie is not considered to be grim and dark if it have plenty of HAHA moment.

Or maybe Wonder woman hope and optimisms message is easier to understand and relate compare to both MoS and BvS maybe.

But I agree that main factor in this is a preconceived or existing notion of the character

Also the complete lack of understanding about long term story development. MoS and BvS were about the plot developing naturally into something more light. It starts with Superman feeling alone and isolate, leads into the struggle of heroes finding their direction in BvS (mostly Batman and Wonder Woman, whilst giving Superman the chance to return to a world that better understands and trusts him). SS served to show that there are other threats out there, and show what a world without the Justice League could potentially be like. And Wonder Woman comes along, and it’s set outside of that development for the nosy part, but lays out a clear blueprint about who Diana is and why she doe what she does.
This all leads neatly into Justice League.
Audiences think that a cohesive movie universe must be guest appearances and Easter eggs galore in every movie lest you forget they’re connected, but these movies were building something from the start and the audience wasn’t patient enough to respect that.
Wonder Woman is so successful in this series, because it’s really the only movie that stands completely separate from the build up to JL by having its own self contained plot.
