Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IMS Events at 5.0 against Meta Ads Manager's 4.5. IMS Events also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Meta Ads Manager's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (52K vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
