Allen,

It does not seem serious to say 'by far the greater of the two', that is
just your judgment of value and nothing more than that.

Popper is not only NOT superseded, but he has spawned a school of thought
that is growing and becoming more influential, not less so.  Feyerabend
is a good and interesting philosopher, but Popper is by far the greater
of the two.
