We just bought an Anycubic Photon D2. We don't need a huge build plate (though the D2 is pretty big) and wanted a workhorse. The long life and lower power use were big selling points.
Edit: I also wanted to add that after useing Prusaslicer for my mk3s for years I still ended up going with Lychee slicer for SLA. I find adding supports easier even though I miss Prusaslicer's UI and polish every time I use Lychee.
I have the predecessor to that, the Photon Ultra. I'd be very interested in seeing how the anti-aliasing performs on the D2 - I've been fighting voxels on the Ultra since Day One, and haven't been happy with the results.
So far we've been printing dice on it, but once I get into printing minis I'll let you know.
