Open translation for this passage
τούτοις μείζονα ὑπῆρχέ πως ἢ ἄλλου πάρεργα εἶναι λόγου.
Elliptical comparison after ἢ: the phrase ἄλλου πάρεργα εἶναι λόγου is syntactically compressed, so the attachment of ἢ and ἄλλου is somewhat uncertain.

τοῖς μὲν οὖν ἀπʼ Αἰγύπτου τιμῇ τε ἀληθεῖ καὶ εὐεργέταις οὖσι γεγόνασιν αἱ δωρεαί, Φιλίππῳ δὲ καὶ Ἀλεξάνδρῳ κολακείᾳ μᾶλλον ἐς αὐτοὺς τοῦ πλήθους,
The sentence has a paired dative contrast (τοῖς μὲν ... Φιλίππῳ δὲ ...) with a somewhat elliptical δεύτερον μέλος; the exact attachment of κολακείᾳ μᾶλλον ἐς αὐτοὺς τοῦ πλήθους is syntactically compressed and partly inferential.
