down will wait for containers/services to exit "gracefully" while kill will send SIGKILL signal to stop services immediately.

From docker-compose down:

Stops containers and removes containers, networks, volumes, and images created by up.

From docker-compose kill:

Forces running containers to stop by sending a SIGKILL signal. Optionally the signal can be passed, for example:

docker-compose kill -s SIGINT
