Honestly at this point the two sites are different enough that they both provide value and I would recommend everyone check out both.

Was a big fan of privacytools.io back in the day and when they switched to privacyguides.org the one thing that irked me was how much content was removed. Knowing what is out there to use and if it's even good is a big problem in this space because of all the projects that rise and fail.
