Monero has leaks, as shown here:

They seem to be getting fixed, but it's unlikely it'll come sooner than later.

Most of those are bullshit, the guy who runs the site is a known provocateur on a crusade against Monero,, if you want to hear how his arguments stand up against someone who actually knows what they're talking about, find his interview with Luke Parker.
Or search my history, I remember refuting the "arguments" on that site one by one months ago.
The sender knowing the one-time stealth address that *they generated* and *the amount they are sending* is hardly a "leak".
It's like saying cash isn't private because you as the payer know how much you paid and what envelope you placed the cash in. No third parties are privy to any of that information. Counterparty also doesn't know your balance or what ends up happening with that money after they paid it.
The sender privacy part seems like the major one here that is a fair criticism. But it's a difference in magnitude/probability not a deterministic "leak". Ring signatures are mathmatically ZK within their ringsize (that could be 3, or 100,000,000+, or any arbitrarily large size). FCMP is mathematically ZK with every output on-chain.
