Both are centralized coordinators is a trade off.
Wasabi uses fees to pay Chainanalysis to survey and block users. If you are found on the blacklist the coordinator confiscates your bitcoin that you are coinjoining. They technically get the best anonymity set because they do large coinsjoin approx 250 input and 250 outputs
Whirlpool doesn’t use coinjoin fees for Chainanalysis, best UI by far of any coinjoin implementation, easily integrated in Sparrow. Centralized coordinator is a downside. Smaller anonymity set because only 5 inputs and 5 outputs per coinjoin but can do multiple coinjoin rounds
