The gang on It's Always Sunny is worse but they are obviously not people we're supposed to empathise with. It's quite a bit less obvious on Seinfeld.

Always Sunny was taking the idea of Seinfeld and dialing it up to 11.

I feel like the distinction is that on Sunny the gang is “punished” for their shitty behavior, and on Seinfeld they basically never were. (I don’t include the season finale because that was just a cop-out to give the show an ending.)

I feel like Seinfeld reveled in the naughty pleasure of schadenfreude
