I like it running in its own window outside my normal web browser. Google chrome has an "app" mode for just this kind of thing. I start whatsapp with the following command line to give it its own window and task bar icon:
Hey guys, I recently started using fedora and Linux in general. Since there are no official WhatsApp clients I thought I'd ask you guys, who have been using them. What are advantages and disadvantages of the ones that are available. How does it feel using them? Thanks for your help in advance
If you don't need a dedicated app to use WhatsApp on Linux, you can easily get by with WhatsApp Web, an official web client that you can run inside a browser. To get started, head over to web.whatsapp.com.
I think linux desktop (and humanity!) needs something like Skype, with chat, VoIP and videocalls. You really need a phone client for it to be adopted. Maybe a Gnome-shell Telegram client could be the way to go, but I think they still have not opened the code server.
The idea is very good, as the popular protocols have tended to disappear, not the open source protocols that have grown and are used by companies, universities and private users. So developers can focus on implementing the features offered by these protocols, and make them competitive as file transfer, voice and video calls, secure conversations, etc.
Thanks for the quick reply. When you try to print out an email in Bluemail, you will notice the issue.Similarly, if you attempt to save a picture from a Whatsapp client on the machine you also get scrambled fonts.
Try go Help>Troubleshooting information and click on the safe mode restart firefox without add-on. After login whatsapp on safe mode just restart your firefox back with add-on and it should be logged in.
If Waterfox simply goes to WhatsApp Web or a "normal" reload command is issued, Whatsapp works with Mozilla FIrefix 30+ page pops back up. It also obviously happpens when Waterfox just launches and loads WhatsApp Web. In general, browsers load/reload pages from cache, so forcing a network reload with CTRL + F5 seems to reliably bypasse cache, therefore, bypassing the issue.
