conversely
From opposite perspective
Conversely signals that you're about to say the opposite or reverse of what came before: Some find the humidity oppressive; conversely, others thrive in it.
The word pivots between contrasting statements, often in formal or analytical writing.
It's more precise than "on the other hand," which can introduce mere difference rather than true opposition.
