As an aside, I am loving SponserBlock. I no longer have to reach for the mouse to click ahead to the end of the ad.

Very similar story. Left Digg during the exodus, loved reddit for a while using BaconReader. Unknowingly the Outrage machine was doing a number on me and once I left last month, I felt a large weight lifted. Quality of conversations are greatly improved, but I’ve noticed some howling monkeys here too. Far fewer though.

I have noticed I’ve split my time to several instances as well as using Tildes, BBC and a variety of other sources to fill the space reddit used to do as I had it curated over a dozen years. Hard to flesh that out in a month.
