I think they're cool too but I think they have less widespread appeal because they're more monstrous looking to most people. However it should be noted that they don't get featured in media nearly as much as dinosaurs.
Dimetrodon at least gets some love but that's largely because most people mistakenly thought it was a dinosaur for a while. It has fairly familiar looking features not dissimilar from large modern reptiles which might help. Of course, it should also be noted that paleo art makes it look dinosaur-like and paleo art can be heavily biased. For all we know it may have looked more like a giant rat with a sail on its back than a reptile.
