Bitcoins are more well known, are more widely accepted by merchants, and more widely known by most people.

Bitcoin isn't better it's just adopted and taken better by the mainstream.  Bitcoin could easily be Litecoin and we'd be in the same position, but Bitcoin reached the market first.
Of course bitcoin reached the market first, litecoin is a fork of bitcoin. Litecoin wouldn't have been possible without bitcoin.

Litecoin can handle a higher volume of transactions thanks to its faster block generation. If bitcoin were to try to match this, it would require significant updates to the code that everyone on the bitcoin network is currently running.
Yet LTC has almost no transactions so there will never be a need to scale litecoin

Because it came first, it's more well known, people pay more for it, litecoin was just a fork of bitcoin, scrypt isn't as popular as SHA-256.....

bitcoin has more active, dedicated developers while litecoin has not so active developer.

yes bitcoin devs are a little too active of late  Shocked LOL...especially most having hands in many cookie jars (conflicts of interest both sides of recent debates).

litcoin as very active positive development, when did you even check ur facts.

there are far more places that you can spend your bitcoin but the same thing is not true about litecoin.
bitcoin is (sort of) the original idea but litecoin is just a copy with no useful new feature.
bitcoin has higher price, market cap, user, hodler in comparison with litecoin
in the end litecoin price history shows a dying coin minus the recent Chinese pump

Simply bitcoin is earlier than litecoin and its media coverage is way greater than litecoin.

I don't know if it was already said but:
Bitcoin is better because his original creator is unknown. Something that cannot be imitated never, that's the another special thing about the first Cryptocoin in the world.  Kiss

hemm litecoin is better in this section
The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks – this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.

I really like LTCs increased transaction speed. I spent a week or two playing around with some Litecoin gambling sites and exchanges, and got so used to the fast confirms that I found myself annoyed with waiting when I went back to Bitcoin. Of course, Bitcoin isn't going anywhere as the top cryptocurrency, but I would like to see more Litecoin integration into sites that already accept Bitcoin

Sure, there's probably exceptions. However, bitcoin was there first, has the largest push behind it, has all the peripheral businesses, and more developments

Supporters of Litecoin like to market it as "Silver to Bitcoin's Gold," since there will be far more Litecoins produced and blocks are generated 4 times faster, making it better for day-to-day transactions. Opponents of Litecoin point out that the number of coins produced is irrelevant, since individual coins are so divisible; the benefit of the 2.5 minute block time is debatable.

I believe they're quite same!

However, Litecoin (LTC) seems to have an advantage when it comes to faster transactions times... On the other hand... I don't know if it has bigger blocks
