I'm one. I ran it for many years and loved it. I think it's a great little OS
and a really nice ecosystem grew up around it.
The fact that it's still being ported to new hardware designs even today is a
testament to its usefulness and elegant simplicity.
I know many people who like CP/M. Don't discount the size of its fan base just
yet.

I like the Kaypros fine, but I like the Commodore 128 better for CP/M. It
may be slow, but it's a nice implementation.
It *is* odd that CP/M induces relatively little nostalgia and a whole lot
of nausea. You'd think that it would have its rabid partisans.
