This seems like a cliché answer, but my favorite overall is The Measure of a Man. Granted, there is a lot I haven’t seen (only pieces of DS9 and Voy, and none of the new stuff other than Lower Decks).
I just really like how it raises one specific issue without trying to skirt around it while dealing with it directly.

DATA IS NOT PROPERTY
He is a fully living sentient being. Full stop.
Why couldn’t they leave Data alone? He just wanted to feel!
Glad we got that settled!

I don’t think that’s cliche at all. It’s an amazing episode and a great example of how science fiction is a mirror on humanity.
That episode has aged like the finest of wines, it’s only gotten more prescient.
