If the sampling of this thread is any indication, there won't be one choice that is 100% great for everyone.
The American Academy of Sleep Medicine has long advocated for eliminating DST as it disrupts our circadian rhythms: https://jcsm.aasm.org/doi/10.5664/jcsm.8780

And some of it is personality, some is schedule, and some is where in a time zone you live. Time zones are massive. Being on the west end of a time zone is hard on those who like light mornings. Being on the east end is hard for people who like light evenings. Winter and lack of sunlight is hard any way you slice it, but it can be better or worse depending on time zone. My friend in eastern Colorado almost in KS is on the same time as Boise, ID, where in summer the sun is still actually out and shining at 9:30 pm in the summer.
