Ranker goes far beyond Top 10 lists with deep rankings about everything, voted on by everyone. It's the largest destination for crowdsourced rankings on movies, tv, music and more. We believe that the opinion of millions of fans is more definitive than the opinion of one critic. Fans like you have the ability to influence the rankings of their favorite athletes, singers, celebrities, TV, movies, and pretty much anything that can be ranked. Ranker has something for everyone - including spooky stories in Graveyard Shift, historical tales in Weird History, definitive cosplay, manga and fan art rankings in Anime Underground, Marvel, DC, and indie comics polls in Total Nerd, and Unsolved Mysteries in Unspeakable Times.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Ranker at none against FailArmy's shown. Ranker also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). FailArmy's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
