People in Scotland are fans of it
If they clocks were GMT year round in Inverness, sunrise at 0730 today, 0830 come December, 0900 on shortest day.
But under GMT year round sunset in July would be before 2100, which seems a waste when culture has people getting up about 0700 (and if you did shift culture to get up an hour earlier, you'd be up for hours before sunrise in winter).
With Daylight Saving sunrise at 10am not great.
America is (aside from Alaska) quite far south, so the effect isn't as pronounced
