    I actually hate the new whatsapp desktop app on windows. They somehow managed to turn it into this nearly unusable mess, where absolutely everything is super slow (5950x CPU be damned), most times textboxes just refuse to take focus and you just don’t type at all until you click on something other than whatsapp and then click back in, and the app sometimes just completely disappears from my Taskbar. I’ve noticed similar trends of bugginess on the android app, every now and then the textbox will just shoot up to the top of the screen, or just behave erratically. Feels like I’m watching the spiritual rebirth of post-MS acquisition Skype.

      That’s strange, the WhatsApp app on my mobile hasn’t glitched ever and I’ve been using it for like 5-8 years or so? I can’t even remember since when.

      Can’t talk about the desktop app as I don’t use that, I use the browser app which is always amazingly well with the few exceptions where sometimes they make an update and then it doesn’t load for a few days, but this has happened only twice in all the time since I’ve used it
