My MF smartwatch has WhatsApp but still no Linux version.

Technically you could run an Android container on Linux like with Waydroid and get WhatsApp too, it's just that there'll probably be more Android users

Flatpak has WhatsApp for Linux.

It's just WhatsApp web as an app

That's exactly what a "desktop" client would be anyway: a crappy, memory hogging electron app.

But WhatsApp have a really good app on windows which can attend calls and stuff . I think recently in Mac too . I'm using WhatsApp inside waydroid container in Linux so that I can at least attend calls

But it spoofs the user agent as a Mac because WhatsApp blocks Linux on the web

  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
