Depends on where you live. Summer in Minnesota is probably nice, no snow and lots of lakes to swim in. Summer in Perth is a life-threatening couple of months.

10ish years ago I would have said Summer is the best but Spring and Autumn are close contendente. With winters being only ok because of the snow.
Nowadays I still say summer is best but spring and autumn are gone (replaced by alternating weeks of summer and weeks of winter) and winter is just dark, wet and too cold to be enjoyable but not cold enough to have snow.
And also summers used to be like 30°C max if it was hot, maybe a little warmer, now if we get a week of summer that is 30°C max we consider it a cool summer because on average the max day temperature hangs at around 38~40°C.
My favorite temp is around 15-18C. Sweater weather.
Cold sucks. But you don't need a lot of protection to be comfortable in 15C weather, and if you're too hot because you've been working or something, instant relief by just taking off a layer.
Summer is too hot. Winter always sucks.
I'd be overheating at 15C in any kind of layers that thick if I'm not doing nothing.
By "taking off a layer" I mean, you take off your sweater and walk around in your t-shirt....
You would overheat in 15C weather in a T-shirt?
Sunbelt here:
I legitimately loathe any temperature <23°. At 20° I’m too uncomfortable to be outside without layers. I’d prefer to do nearly everything outside if feasible, and really enjoy nature. I also hate rain during the colder months.
I’m legitimately glad that people have options, but I think the population growth of the southwest shows where people are partial to the weather 😝
Depends a lot on the climate. I hated summer in Hungary with 3 months of 30-39°C days, now in Scotland, where it barely goes over 20°C for a couple weeks / year, I cherish every sunny day.
...is it common for people in the northern hemisphere to not get time off school during winter?
Often a week or two around Christmas time. When I was in school 30 years ago, we got nothing.
But summer vacation was 3 months long.
“Hot take” - lol. Sorry, couldn’t help but giggle at the dad joke..
My wife works for the schools and still has summer off. I have two kids in high school and one in college. All summer off. I hate summer. I'm going snow camping the week after Christmas though. Without them.
I love summer, but this does kind of make sense. I live in Korea, where they have a long winter break (Christmas until March) from school. People here seem to love winter, which is usually absolutely frigid and miserable.
I hated summers cause it was when I was isolated and emotionally neglected.
Fall is peak, we just hated it because it meant we were back to school. By far the best weather and plenty of holidays.
I like summer. I also don't have to exist outside during the hottest part of the day though.
