WhatsApp doesn't actually delete messages. They still get delivered afterwards.
Recently I've been using https://github.com/hoehermann/purple-gowhatsapp for accessing WhatsApp from Pidgin. After a contact sends and deletes some messages, when I connect via that plugin, the deleted messages are delivered to me. This means that WhatsApp didn't actually delete messages, and only caused the official clients to show the messages as deleted. The messages were deleted hours ago, and yet they still got delivered.

I hate my goddamned phone
This one doesn't, once my phone got dropped in the water and I didn't replace it for a few weeks, and WhatsApp on the computer worked for about three weeks or so.

Best Whatsapp client for Linux
https://github.com/hoehermann/purple-gowhatsapp with Finch might accomplish that.
- Are any of the Linux phones cheap now?

Is there an open source alternative client to whatsapp for Android?
You could probably use this Pidgin Plugin on your PC. But i would recommend user "loandowns" suggestion.

How Beeper Mini Works
ah didn't realize it had gone away. its successor appears to be [0]
now I'm reliving the chaos of the late-00s/early-10s instant messaging apocalypse when AOL sunsetted AIM. Clients like Trillian were absolutely necessary before AIM shut down. Everybuddy was a good linux-friendly client. When I still spent time on IRC, I really really liked Bitlbee [1] with ERC [2].
(I'm not saying that there's a connection there, but rather that all the chat protocols started getting used less around the same time for the same reason, which was smartphones becoming commonplace in late-00s.)

Is/are there any FOSS Discord Client for Android?
I use purple-discord (libpurple/Pidgin plugin) + BItlBee (IRC chat gateway, libpurple variant) + Quassel (distribued IRC client, like a bouncer) on a home server, and use Quasseldroid to connect on mobile. I would eventually like to simplify this setup.

The first beta of Slidge (XMPP bridges) is out
I used to have a similar setup to use IRC for everything using https://www.bitlbee.org. Fun times!
