I’ve never heard anyone who likes DST… this thread confirms my bias. Arizona has it right. We have internet now, no need to change clocks, just update your schedules for the season.

I like DST. I just don't like changing the clocks. Permanent DST would be the ideal imo

I disagree. The sun does not need to be up at 9pm in the summer. We have light bulbs now.

Eliminate DST entirely, and call it a day. Like the other person said, Arizona has the right idea. Let's do permanent fall/winter time. People who live in far north regions like Alaska, Iceland, Norway, etc can go to permanent DST if they want. But it doesn't make sense for most of the world.

I'm in Canada and I just don't want it to get dark at 3PM. That's why I like DST
