Just curious (even though posting it on LJ will skew any sort of "real" results. Though I am hoping to entice some tumblrites to answer also).
I'm thinking about this because I have noticed a lot of LJians migrating to tumblr and it makes me wonder if that's because it offers a more rewarding fandom experience than LJ. For me, it's LJ. I enjoy tumblr but I can (and did!) go days without visiting it, but I can't go a day without checking into LJ.

I consider "rewarding" to mean where you get the most pleasure. Perhaps your "go to" fandom place. The one that is most satisfying as a fandom hangout. The one you feel most at home or perhaps the place you feel you belong.

Thanks for your thoughts on this - that's interesting. I agree about tumblr being good for those moments when you don't want to interact.
I haven't been about to work out tumblr saviour (I really need to make for of an effort to figure it out). Though I've found the "ignore" option pretty useful once I see people posting stuff I don't want to see.
Structural and functional differences that have an effect, but it's still all fandom.
Yeah, Great point. Thank you.
