Wasabi is the best
You're being fooled, child. Wasabi is lightyears ahead of other Bitcoin privacy tech, but at the very least, from the scam you're recommending instead: https://github.com/nopara73/ScamouraiWallet/blob/master/README.md
Pay attention to what Peter says. Even if you run your own full node, you still don't know who you're coinjoining with. As the old saying goes: anonymity likes company.
May I also say, that no expert, has ever taken the time to examine the shaky grounds of their 5 participant coinjoins either, because fundamental privacy leaks like this or the default clearnet usage just put us off from looking any deeper.
In contrast, the "egregious privacy offender" Wasabi has no known privacy issues.
I have done extensive research about the subject
Not extensive enough.
The current version of Wasabi doesn't have peelchains, nor peelchains were a bug in 1.0, but a known compromise of ALL ZeroLink coinjoin implementations, therefore the magic trick of samuri taking out the peel from the coinjoin into the TX0 itself is just that: a magic trick, a deception and you're their audience as your sources are exhausted in the samuri proxy websites and the misleading claims of their lead blockchain analyzer's.
The reason why you aren't seeing us engaging in these conversations is that for many years now, they've been trying hard to associate us with criminal entities: Here's the proof: "wasabi is broken because "BunnyKiller69" famous north korean hacker/scammer/fraudster has been caught and was using wasabi. When you look at such claims individually you'll always find something that doesn't add up. Sadly, their craig wright level techno blabla doesn't often bump into sensible developers like Peter Todd here.
Let me leave you with some statistics and sources to research that you were asking for.
- Wasabi Wallet's development activity is 100 times larger than Samourai's
- Wasabi Wallet's Twitter activity is 100 times smaller than Samourai's

To learn about Samourai Wallet, which is a known bad actor:
There is a widespread frustration within the Bitcoin privacy space. Developments and developers in this area are sparse.
The Samurai cult has deterred potential Bitcoin privacy developers with their unfathomable aggression towards them and their tendency to spread negativity. Consider, for example, the uproar when Blockstream advertised its privacy achievements with Confidential Transactions on Liquid or PayJoins in Green, or during every single one of Wasabi's achievements, most recently on BTCPay and Trezor integrations. Even those who dare to discuss the privacy breakthroughs of the Lightning Network face harassment. This phenomenon is so well-recognized that some even suspect the team behind it is part of a government operation.
Seasoned privacy advocates like Peter Todd, who coined the term "coinjoin", Greg Maxwell, the inventor of coinjoin, myself, who created the type of coinjoin they're currently using, and Chris Belcher, who invented the only other type of coinjoin (excluding the new Wasabi 2.0 coinjoins), all view them as a malicious joke. They cannot be compared to Wasabi or JoinMarket because they are a trusted third party.
On the topic of doxxing, the interview was not the first time the Samurais revealed their identities. It's not as though I disclosed something that I learned in secret. I merely pointed to a public resource to establish a connection between one of their sockpuppets and them: the company registry where they exposed their identities.
They believe that if they yell "doxxing" loudly enough, it will somehow become true, but it doesn't.
The Samurais have abandoned their pseudonyms multiple times, not only during the interview and in the company registry, where they disclosed their identities. They just had a change of heart when people started to link their past scams to their current scams, like when they worked at blockchain.info and botched the wallet's random generation - they were seeding user wallets from random.org - causing many users to lose money: https://nopara73.medium.com/samouraileaks-part-3-is-random-org-random-enough-35704796ae93
These malicious actors are present and will remain so until they pull an exit scam or Bitcoin users discover the deserted state of their git repositories, wise up, and slowly but inevitably fade into irrelevance.
Bitcoin privacy is bleeding from the inside just as much as from the outside, but all hope is not yet lost. At Wasabi Wallet, we won't rush head first into the wall. We will do everything possible to build a sovereign money management freedom software stack. Feel free to hurl old and new scamurai propaganda at us; we'll continue writing code.
