    I love it for being QT and docking Whatsapp for Plasma. But it has a very serious defect. Every time you restart your computer, you will have to connect and disconnect your Whastsie account as the application stops working with Whatsapp after the application is turned off and on again.

Feels great to use a FOSS WhatsApp port for Linux Mint on desktop. I want to give it four stars because it has logged me out and/or switched the theme back to light mode, but I can't complain too much because it's so quick to QR "scan back in." :)
