Its usually not something people want, but in some countries (Germany) WhatsApp is a synonym for texting. If you don’t have it as a student for instance, you’re practically socially ostracizing yourself. I don’t want to use it at all, but you basically have to, and at that point I also want to access it on my school Laptop, which runs Pop!..
I’m in a community of people from all over Europe (along with a few people from other continents), and WhatsApp is the platform everyone is using. There’s a couple of people on Signal and a couple on Telegram, but there’s just no way I can stop using WhatsApp without my social and professional life suffering.
WhatsApp Web does an alright job on desktop, so that doesn’t really bother me. What is worse is that it cannot be used with Linux mobile at all without jumping through a bunch of hoops to emulate android.
whatsapp on linux gives me real nutella pizza vibes. Yeah, some might see no problem with it… but others might shudder by the thought alone.
