I guess it depends on the algorithm they chose, HChaCha20 is the symmetric encryption algorithm for libsodium.js which is quantum resistant.

Most if not all symmetric encryption is quantum resistant though (with a large enough key). Quantum computing only causes problems for asymmetric algorithms that involve factorisation iirc
