All encrypted chat apps are one strong-arm subpoena away from sharing their logs with law enforcement.

Telegram wasn't really ever an encrypted chat app. If it were, people wouldn't need to be fleeing it.

Only if they have the ability to collect logs on servers they control with SimpleX that can easily not be the case. The server infrastructure can be run by most anybody since it is open source and freely available and the actual software does everything in its capacity to not even make messages linkable. So best of luck.
