Best Whatsapp client for Linux
Before that I was using WhatsApp for Linux, but it's a wrapper around a Chrome web app, I think, and I like my links to open in Firefox.

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.

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.
