If you don't run your own Dojo node to which Samourai wallet on your phone connects to, they see everything happening in your wallet, they can link your inputs and outputs in Whirlpool coinjoin transactions you participate in. Basically in this (default) scenario you are private against other parties but not private against Samourai. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/tL-8gwQpJyc

So samorai can see your UTXOs & Wasabi 2.0 check with chainalysis. What about join market?

Only thing Wasabi 2.0 does is ask third party chainanal tx some info (score) about UTXO when registering it into coinjoin and in worst case will just refuse to mix specific coin (but you can still spend it without coinjoin). But it does not do anything to cluster UTXOs in your wallet together.
JoinMarket doesn't do neither of these. It can't ban UTXOs by design (no single centralized coordinator) and doesn't reqest any blockchain status from third parties. But it requires you to run full node.
