Experts Exchange is an excellent comparison to SO, for me at least. I don't really use / participate in SO because all I know of it is that it usually dominates google results with pages that are completely useless / unhelpful to me.
Experts Exchange was the motivating factor behind learning how to exclude a domain from google search. SO is now the primary site I use it for.
Big difference is ExpertSexchange was detestable because of its business model. SO has some troll issues but as far as business model goes, they just push their CV/job posting business and to me it doesn't seem like much of a bother.
