Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: HomeDisco at free with in-app purchases against HARDERCLASS's subscription. HARDERCLASS's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 27.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
