Knight is better, knight can fork the queen and king even if the king and queen are not on the same diagonal.
Knights are very tricky this why I like them

I have to be honest. Bishops are better than knights but knights are more fun. Fun or Better?

What is the point of numerical value? Only mate matters. Both have their assets. They're equal.

Yeah, but some people prefer to mate with horses, they say it's more "artsy"
Keep in mind that knight tend to excel in blitz and bullet chess. Especially when low on time. The bishop is foreseeable while the knight is unpredictable. Single knight vs bishop in blitz/bullet time scrabmle is more often than not an consideable advantage.
- Ceteris Paribus - knight usually has the upper hand in time scrambles.

But it's not forced, your opponent must blunder.

The archbishop is somewhere between the Rook and Queen in value. Slightly more closer to the queen. Estimated value above 7.5.
Knight
Bishops
