Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: OpenOrigins Source at none against Newsflare's shown. OpenOrigins Source also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). Newsflare's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
