If is anything like the WhatsApp Web, "works" might be optimistic choice of word.

When I switched from Windows, the thing that I missed from Windows on Linux was the native WhatsApp App. Now they killed there, so feeling better on my switch now!

The WhatsApp web app is not perfect (no software is) but I’ve never had any major issues with it. It’s snappy and very rarely does it glitch out. I find your comment surprising.

It's a ram hog if you stay the tab open for a while, with ton of messages. So from time to time I need to close the tab and open again.

Huge perf issues because of this.

Also had some serious bugs for a few week. Had to let WhatsApp Web wait for completely sync for 15 minutes~ or else it just stop responding and crashes everything.
