I prefer orca slicer
What you’re looking for is adaptive layer height.
Here’s a video somebody posted that shows where you can find it
Adaptive Layer Height - Orca Slicer
Basically this adjusts the layer height to be smaller when smaller details are needed.
For example when doing a dome on a cylinder the main cylinder body will have larger layer heights but when it needs to start curving inward it will use smaller layer heights so the “steps” aren’t as pronounced.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
