Neither site is really better, and neither site has a weighted bias toward either publisher, not really.
ATM CV has a lot more younger members who have been brought to the site by the digital media (MCU, DCEU, CW Arrowverse, etc). They also have more anime fans. Because of this a LOT of the discussion on CV doesnt interest me much anymore (I struggle to find a thread I actually want to weigh in on)
There are a lot more users on CV that dont have much knowledge on the actual comics medium.
A lot of the better members of CV that I think would fit well here arent all that active anymore.
So currently I probably spend the most of my comic forum time on herochat, followed by here, then CBR, with CV coming up the rear. A few years ago comicbloc would have had the lions share followed by CV, Here, HC, and CBR. Honestly the main reason that's changed is I forgot my loggin and PW to comicbloc and cant remember what damn email I was using when I signed up

Herochat still exists?
They crested a new HC. Due to massiv trolling it started out with only certain members invited to the new site.
Somehow I qualified for the invite, a lot didnt.
Theybe recently made it public again.
Ohh the other reason my active on comicbloc dropped (and why I forgot my damn login to begin with) was they dropped the JSA specific forum and a fewnothers I liked.
There used to be a dozen + of us JSA fanboys who would post often.

it sucks because herochat had some really good threads back in the day and now it's all gone, can't find them anymore

Comicvine is getting better but KMC still is better to me. CBR is still a massive joke and you get banned for arguing against the status quo.Vsbattles and Naruto forums blow ass .
yeah CBR is stupid AF even if you show proof backing your case and the mod doesn’t like it they ban you laughing out loud
Yeah I got IP banned from there and have no idea why.
The wierd thing is the IP that got banned was that of my mobile network. So when I'm home in wifi (or at work) I can still login. So apparently I wasnt banned as a user 🤔

It's been a known problem of theirs for years.
They banned IP ranges and never cleared their ban lists.
I was "banned" from cbr, too ----- even though I never had an account there.
comicvine has def become a marvel fans club at this point, it was fair and good at the very beginning, around 2009-2011, once mcu popularity took off the site has been saturated with marvel fans. there's no actual debate and discussion anymore. it's just fanboys yelling stuff like "xxx stomps" without capability to give any reason.
it was funny seeing abhi trying to reason with them by dropping 100 scans and presenting actual arguments. only to be handwaved away by people who lacks general comic book knowledge. it was so hopelessly funny that he eventually deactivated his account. and abhi is one of the most tenacious debators I've seen, he used to take on 5-6 people in a thread on kmc. but CV's collective ignorance ripped him a new one. imagine 20 albertos and 20 jbls in a thread cheerleading/circlejerking each other, without the darksaints of the world to keep them in check. no one can handle that.
for example the surfer's delusions on the site can't be break by any logic and reasoning. it's a place where pet characters supersede on panel evidences.
the marvel fans have formed little clique with the mods, and a lot of dc people who argue against them have been perma banned. like a lot... I know 4 people from my discord group that's been perma banned from heated arguments. they were not trolls but serious posters.
carver would love it there right now, the past year Hulk wankage is reaching unstoppable status.
kmc was very marvel leaning around 2012-early 2015, during the n52 era dc has little say in this forum.the last 4-5 years it has balanced out. it has always been relatively fair as far as presenting your case. if you make good posts you will get respect. it gets heated in some discussions but mods usually don't play favorite and most people here have knowledge absolutely dwarfs comicvine. it's not even in the same ballpark
if we go by comic knowledge here's how it's ranked
KMC
CBR, Herochat
Spacebattles
Vsbattles
Comicvine (currently of course)
