    eta about that whatsxmpp bridge

  3. lovetox

    years ago i used another bridge

  4. lovetox

    and read that whatsapp bans the phone numbers as soon as it sees that not a phone is used

    anyway I've been connecting using a very obviously "not WhatsApp web" user agent for a year or so and they don't seem to care yet

    ok that hurts my head

  12. lovetox

    the bridge runs on my xmpp server

    I think you don't get people away from WhatsApp by being still reachable on WhatsApp…

  15. eta

    lovetox: no, it needs WhatsApp running

  16. eta

    Martin: no, you don't
