Do you find it harder to hit a home-run playing softball vs. hitting one playing baseball?

I couldn’t hit a home-run for my life when I played in a slow pitch softball league, but playing baseball I find it a lot easier. Do you find it harder to hit a slow pitch also?

I think it’s a lot easier in baseball. In baseball pitches are straight at you at high speeds, with a solid swing the ball is gone. In slow pitch softball, the pitch comes in slowly with a high arc and great deal of backspin. Making it a lot harder to get a good swing off and make solid contact with the ball.
