Whatsdesktop doesn't start

[Kidlike]

Please succinctly describe your issue and steps to reproduce it.

• Stuck at loading screen forever.
• I tried to delete its config (rm -rf ~/.config/WhatsDesktop/), and remove the authorization from my mobile app, but it's still stuck here even after restart.

I had same issue, cloning the repository and running with NPM worked fine though. Right now this is less-supported than WhatsDesk you can get from the Snap store.

Also take a look at: https://github.com/ShadyThGod/altus/releases

altus looks awesome :)

Been using it myself, it works really well and has multi-tab in case you know -- you have a lot of accounts? (no clue) but works great and the Dark Mode actually works on it since it uses a complete rewrite of the skin. Good luck!
