Well, some do consider it a weed. Probably because of their tendency to pop up wherever and spread. Not to mention, no work is needed for it to grow.
However, it's a plant many gardeners love, and it is actually an aster. It's also considered a wildflower. Bees and butterflies love them. Here is an excerpt from How to Plant, Grow, and Care For Daisy Fleabane (epicgardening.com).
Butterflies and other pollinators love fleabane! While some flowers provide little food for beautiful pollinators like butterflies, bees, and others, fleabane represents a king’s feast for these pollinators. If you’re planning to make a pollinator garden suited for butterflies, this plant is a great place to start.
