Agree, I like the 6502 architecture but tend to steer newcomers in vintage computers away from it if they have no previous ASM experience.

I started on PIC16 assembly, and dabbled in a bunch of other architectures, but my favorite in terms of cleanness has been MIPS32.

Nitpick: you can still buy new made 6502s, MCUs with 6502 cores, and peripheral chips from Western Design Center. They sell through e.g. Mouser:
