What stick with me was last thing he said, and I tend to agree with this... we might be little too late already, but we still have decentralized JoinMarket and I hope more people work on that, making it easier to use for regular people.

This is the biggest area for development right now. JoinMarket is a great, but setting it up for the average user is just not possible. It's easy enough for most of us who are familiar with Linux or have something like Umbrel which it can easily be deployed on, but for your average user? Compare to simply downloading an app and being good to go, it's easy to see which option many users will pick, even if said app is vastly inferior and is indeed anti-privacy at its core. JoinMarket needs a one-click install (or similar) for all OSs in order to go properly mainstream.

like the recent case where one of them advised bitcoin LN nodes start censoring transactions from certain countries!

To be fair to Matt, he isn't actually pro-censorship but was highlight the issues with LNURL over BOLT12.

Wasabi believes that it gives them a layer of security. But does it truly give them a layer of security?

All it gives is the knowledge to various governments that they are easily bought and can be easily coerced in to implementing ever more draconian nonsense in the future.

That's not at all how a coinjoin transaction works, coordinators do not have the ability to deanonymize the participants of a coinjoin even if they wanted to.

Except of course when Wasabi reuses address and combines mixed outputs with unmixed inputs...
