On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Stream is clearly ahead of Sysdig.

Stream carries 35,664 GitHub stars across 487 public repos, with 84 repositories active in the last 90 days and 44 external contributors on record. Sysdig shows 284 stars across 6 public repos, 1 active in the last 90 days and 1 external contributors.
