Hello,

Is it possible to run Whatsapp on ARM64 (Raspberry pi 3,4, PINE64,...) ?

I have a rpi4.

Ubuntu?

Kind regards

I have run Whatsapp (Web version) in Slarm64 (an unofficial slackware port) an Chromium. They do install firefox, and it runs on that also.

You can't make phone calls afaict. There is some "Communities" feature I never bothered checking out. It's best viewed as an extension of your phone app, not a substitute. Everything is tied to the phone numnber in your SIM.
