The thrill of coming down in the morning to a successful print…the agony of it having impossible to remove supports.
(Suggestions for Cura to get it to create supports that release easily?)
It’s called move to Kisslicer or bite the bullet and get Simplify3D.
Simplify3D 
Use KISSlicer and flow tweak support with https://github.com/Intrinsically-Sublime/Flow_tweak-post-processor
I don’t regret getting S3D. Totally worth the money from where I am sitting.
I used Kisslicer on iteration 1, but didn’t tweak flow support. FWIW, baking the spool for 20 minutes at 175F allowed me to use up some scraps I would have otherwise thrown away…
New Kisslicer version should be out soon. Beta versions are working pretty good.
The new [latest] Slic3r is supposed to have better support generation than before and customize options for it. Haven’t tried it yet though.
Simplify3D has the best support I’ve seen. But it has other quirks as well. Also it’s expensive.
I just tried the new pillar support in slic3r. Huge improvement over previous versions. I still haven’t played around with the extra options to tweak it in perfectly yet, but very pleased so far.
I had this same problem with Cura and increasing the support offsets, vertically and horizontally, helped a lot. Higher hotend temperature also seems to make the supports harder to remove, which sucks because I like printing hot. 
I will have to try the thinner supports as well. The dremel works to get it off but what a pain.
I believe mesh mixer can generate tree branch like supports. Another thing I tried is to crank up the overall speed, 100-150, then adjust all individual speeds like internal wall speed etc. I didn’t do much testing but that should cause the nozzle to whip over the support areas making them fragile. Although that might leave a surge of plastic after support. I hope they improve support in Cura, I think it’s like the only thing lacking. Maybe a plugin is a solution to tweak flow during support?
It can, but it makes some WIERD decisions. (I’ll have to post a chess piece I had it print.)
Print in anything other than PLA. Cura supports are pretty good, but hot PLA is too sticky to ever get really good release.
Boy, you’re not kidding! I threw some ABS on last night, managed to get it to stick well enough to print a significant percentage of the print. The only place where the support didn’t come off completely was where warpage ruined the geometry. I’m rerunning using meshmixer and superglue on the dots to hold it down. (Theory: If layer adhesion is the problem, use meshmixer to orient the part so that there’s not a lot of layers to adhere!)
