I read that all the popular chat services provide similar information to law enforcer agencies. I don’t think telegram is special in this regard.

Depends if you consider Signal “popular”, because based on your own link, the only information they provide is:
No message content., Date and time a user registered. Last date of a user’s connectivity to the service.

I’m generally given to trust Malwarebytes regarding cybersecurity, but they don’t mention at all that E2E encryption is not the default messaging style on Telegram. That, plus the article being from 2021, makes me distrustful of that source.
Signal is still the only service I am aware of that does not store logs of user messages on servers. Messages only exist on the devices of individual users.
