Different strokes. Different folks.
The main differences are in the generalphilosophy of moderation, with AD's rules being more flexible, but at the same time a bit more subjective (though that's subject to how they are enforced, both here and there. AF has moved to a more flexible philosophy over time).
And there's distinctly separate communities with their own norms, expectations, and set of social relationships. AD inadvertently can be a little cliquey, likely as a result of a shared group identity. AF has moved in that direction a little, thanks to varying rates of turnover among different segments of the community, but lacks the type of cohesive group identity that many at AD share.
