Default Hand flying: CRJ vs E175?

Yes, I'm old school. No, I'm not afraid of automation.

I've heard of some G-whiz operators that still encourage their drivers to hand-fly below 10k. So now I'm curious about the regional corner of the aviation sandbox.

In comparing the typical CRJ and E-175 profile(s), could one expect to spend more/less hands-on time in one platform compared to the other?

I'm guessing that this might be somewhat airline (but mostly) situation and workload dependent?

NB: I ask because I'm interested in a regional that operates both aircraft types. And one of my considerations is: time spent flying the jet vs monitoring the automation vs programming the box.

Many thanks to all, especially those that might be typed on both!
