Yes the situation in Sudan got worse so that it exceeded the situation in Gaza. It has been deteriorating for many months since April 2023.

The collapse of the Sudan is not directly being enflamed directly by any western power compared to the Gaza collapse. So the Sudan conflict is less interesting to us.

The Sudan collapse is being enflamed by regional powers where the UAE is funding the Janjaweed (who are officially declared a g*nocidal outfit) whereas the Sudan government actual is being supported by Iran.

The UAE might be considered a proxy for the US though but this kind of indirection makes the conflict too complicated talk about in the general media i guess.

During what time period was the famine in Gaza worse than the famine in Sudan?

Analysts have spoken about the situation in Sudan over time and the Risks. The talk of a real critical famine being in effect is recent.

Just to be clear the famine is deliberately being caused by occupying g*nocidal Janjaweed army (the RSF), they are besieging towns across the region destroy to prevent food production, blocking supplies and trade.

Famine is always deliberate and caused by military and political decisions.

you can say genocidal, this isn't Facebook. I'd still imagine the UAE has independent goals

UAE 100% will get permission (if not direction) from state department! before they start throwing arms (bought from the US) into middle eastern conflicts
