Well, I should say that fdm certainly has its place. I do a lot of part prototyping, for something that I might need to print 5 or 6 different versions of, I'm 100% going to use my fdm printer.
Resin printers imo are really only good for things you want to look pretty or have shapes too complex to achieve with fdm. If it's something that prints easily and doesn't need immaculate quality, [and you have an fdm printer that doesn't make you want to commit war crimes (like the ender 3)] fdm is less annoying.
