Comparison of archive.today and ghostarchive?

Discussion

I have used archive.today forany years and just learned about ghostarchive. In very limited uses, they seem very similar. In one case, for a very recent article, archive.today already had it saved while ghost had to go out and fetch. Maybe this implies something about archive.today's timeliness or user base?

What are any known differences between the two? Strengths, weaknesses?

archive.today can bypass some pay wall, not sure about ghostarchive, but it can save short youtube videos in lower quality (archive.org can do longer video if you're lucky).

I'm not clear if GhostArchive bypasses paywalls.
They claim not to, but I'm not sure if it's true in practice or if they are just covering themselves legally.
