Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: DebateHub at 5.0 against Sided Debates's 4.6. DebateHub also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). Sided Debates's advantage is ratings volume (59 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
