I hate LaTeX typesetting, it looks very archaic and reeks of academism (is that a word?). Unless document require lot of formulas, LaTeX is not a right tool in 2019.
Of course it can, but by default it does not look good, and it is not trivial to change things, hence you see documents which look straight out of 90s.
You probably don't hate Latex typesetting. It's just that the kind of default styles that people, especially beginners, tend to use that often look archaic. Latex doesn't make creating your own unique styles too easy though, which is why I personally prefer Context.
