Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Swurf at none against GigGag's shown. Swurf also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 78%). GigGag's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
