Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FloatPlayer at none against Compressor for Discord's 1. FloatPlayer also leads on ads (none vs shown). Compressor for Discord's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
