Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: DailyDebian at 5.0 against Linux Basics's 4.5. DailyDebian also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). Linux Basics's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ratings volume (66 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
