I am also thinking to leave slushpool for Antpool, after disappointing performance on 12/25 . 10 vs 21 block
Same for today.
I know Slushpool pay a little bit higher, but if it can't find any block, this really does not matter. Antpool PPS+'s pay is much better now and I can average .0025 per S9 similar to Slushpool's Score systems, but they have much higher (2x) block count for 12/25 and 12/27
Hello, there are lots of options better than Antpool.

They keep all transaction fees for themselves, and transaction fees are a big deal, and they will only become a bigger deal. Plus that's Bitmain, and supporting Bitmain is generally a bad idea.
If you can tolerate some variance, you will come out much further ahead on Kano's pool. Plus you actually get support there.

(and the more people who mine at Kano's pool, the less variance there will be)

Yes transactions are a big deal last week pools of 20-25BTC were getting mined and if charges are not passed to miners then its just waste of time as eventually that is what mining will be all about
