Alright I need help!! One source is saying that this is a lace aloe and the other is saying it’s a zebra plant! I honestly cannot tell for myself and I’ve had her for so long!

I'm very curious to know too! I just got this exact plant in very poor condition a few days ago, and am hoping to bring it back to health! Now with your pictures, I'm leaning more towards lace aloe. I have a zebra plant, and thought maybe a really unhealthy one could end up looking like my new one. But now that I know about lace aloe, I think it's a match!

I believe it is aristaloe aristata.

Here they are side by side. (I plan on a trim and repot this weekend)
