I know there's a non-zero number of people who hate every minute of playing it yet still play it because that number includes me. My alt has a summoner because I enjoyed playing it in shadowbringers it, and I now do unreal with it because there's always already a dragoon and I don't trust random healers in the slightest. We can also look at the data which clearly shows a high play rate with a low enjoyment rate, indicative of people either locking themselves into it with savage drops and limited tomes or people playing it for reasons other than enjoyment.

I will not pretend to know what kind of content you take it into or with what degree of competence you play, but I see no reason to weigh your anecdotes more heavily than a survey of nearly 3000.
