Sorry Machinists, you were forgotten, but I wanted to add to this existing poll for more input instead of creating a new one.

Paladin for me. It was dull back i ARR but HW, SB and SHB have continued to add to it to make it more fun. I'm pretty happy with where the job is now overall.
I've enjoyed gunbreaker but think I still prefer PLD over it. Dancer is fun but a bit too rng dependent even with Flourish. Monk I enjoy the core gameplay of the three stance pseudo combo system but it feels a bit odd beyond that and SE apparantly just gave up trying to add niche ways to keep GL going and just made it super easy (barely an inconvenience) with form shift refreshing it.
Black mage may be my favorite dps this time around so far, but I still have plenty of jobs I need to level. Red mage is still fun, the core of it hasn't changed much in single target.
I'd have said Machinist if it were in the poll because the rework is genuinely very satisfying to play, my runner up is a tie between Dragoon and Black Mage (I voted Dragoon).
Also not surprised that Monk is at the bottom at the time of writing this, Stormblood wasn't a good iteration but Shadowbringers is somehow worse.
For me, right now its Dragoon and Machinist. Both feel wonderful to play, and I'm in love with their very acrobatic animations. (How it is a gunner almost looks more nimble and graceful than a ninja? o.O)
It's a tie between Samurai and White Mage.
Red Mage, easy.
A bit of a surprise to me but right now I'd actually put Samurai at second. I had no specific interest or desire to play a melee DPS but decided to try it and I actually really enjoy it.
Warrior: Fun gameplay, great mitigations and awesome self-healing.
Machinist. screw that poll.
Pretending I did say that, White Mage Healer Main here. Have been since early HW
WHM and RDM out of the classes I've played so far. Both are in wonderful places and both feel extremely satisfying to play. I still haven't touched MCH yet as I was waiting to get DNC to 70 to power level all three Aiming classes, but from what I've heard it's right up my alley.
Samurai main for life here! I sorta wish they hadn't messed with some of the skills as much as they did, but I still love it best. Dancer is intriguing though. I'm seriously considering making it my ranged main.
