Let’s look at NY city.

June 21th longest day, sunrise is at 5:24 am (Set 8:31 pm)

December 21th longest night, sunrise is at 6:42 am (Set 4:32 pm)

If you got rid of daylight savings time then the sun would rise at 4:24 am in June and set at 7:31 pm.

(Most people in NY probably want the extra hour of light at 7:31 pm instead of 4:24 am)

If you kept permanent daylight savings then the sun would rise at 7:42 am in December and set at 5:32 pm)

(Most people in NY probably want some light before 8 because it’s going to be dark after dinner anyways)

So many people are awake before 8 am compared to 5 am

So many people enjoy the light at 7:30 pm in the summer

Switching really is the sweet spot for NY

Location is definitely important too in hating or liking DST

Ontonagon, Mi sun sets at 5:25 pm tonight (7:58 am rise)

Dexter, Me sun sets at 4:10 pm tonight (6:33 am rise)

Same time zone, both northern cities.

If we didn’t get off DST Ontonagon wouldn’t see the sunrise until almost 9 am today

People in Dexter might have preferred to stay on DST getting light between 7:33 am to 5:10 pm today

The farther west you live in a time zone the less you like DST generally. Farther east, the more you like it.

Ontonagon is so west it should really be in Central Time zone.

If that was the case then the sun would set at 4:25 pm tonight (6:58 am rise) (basically Dexter ME times)

At that point they might want to stay on DST and it would make it exactly what it was today, sunset at 5:25 pm tonight (7:58 am rise)
