For a prime lense the next path down from 28MM would either be 24MM or 20MM. You can go lower than that, but for an everyday lens my comfort zone is 20MM as you have to work with the lens more 14MM-18MM more with people in frame. (Not the exact lens I am going to reccommed but gives you an idea if you click around video what 20MM looks like with people done well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YdS5xmYxCA [youtu.be] )
24MM gets you wider angle and is still fairly forgiving focal length. If you have a lens that gives you 28MM already, I would go lower than 24MM personally but watch some videos and checkout shots online for your own personal preference.
personally use 20MM as my go to prime lens everyday. You do need to be slightly conscious of shooting people straight on and height as it can distort human features. That being said if you get it right it looks really good!
For lens without breaking the bank I would say the Tamron 20mm f/2.8 di iii . Normally on Amazon for ~$250. The 24MM is on sale for $200 often. The 20MM is really sharp in the center and even does a good job against its Sony competitor which is $850+ ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zMBr20
If you want to spend more, Sigma has a 20mm with lower F/1.4 (~$600-$700ish dont quote me on that price) and then Sony has their one around $850ish mark and F1.8 which I know people love that lens.
If you prefer a zoom lens over a prime lens I would let others comment!
