Show HN: Beeper Mini – iMessage Client for Android
The best you can do now is run whatsapp apk on an emulator or spare device, then auth that with the matrix bridge, then you can avoid needing to use whatsapp clients on daily drivers. Works decently well: https://github.com/mautrix/whatsapp

Whatsapp for KaiOS 3+
For WhatsApp, there's a thing called 'bridges' that can link your WhatsApp chats to other chat services that you can access from the device. One example is this bridge that bring chats to open-sourced Matrix protocol, which you can use Hydrogen browser interface to access on the phone. Another bridges to a Discord server that might suit well with this community-made interface.

Anyone heard of WhatsApp Web To Go?
I suggest you to take a look at matrix and its bridges, like Mautrix Whatsapp. If you don't have competence / time to setup a matrix server, Element Matrix Services host it for you, and you can use WhatsApp, telegram and signal all with a client, without tracking or shitty things from fb

Welcoming Rocket.Chat to Matrix
I use it as a one-stop-shop for messaging. I setup a Synapse server ~5 years ago and since then have convinced many of my close family and friends to join my server (or another). Now many of the folks I want to chat with are regular users of Matrix. For some of my stone-age friends that are still on WhatsApp, I run a bridge [1] so that I don't need to look beyond my Matrix client to see WhatsApp messages. For other random SMS messages, I use the dated SmsMatrix [2] to push text messages so I can see/reply from Matrix. Beyond that, I also use Matrix to connect to several open source communities (e.g. Mailu.io [3]).

The people deciding to ditch their smartphones
One option could be to have an old phone tuning android WhatsApp and enable the multi-device beta to use that for web access and access on that other phone, although I don't know if they support the multi device feature either. If you're somewhat technical you could also use an android VM instead of a physical phone, and if you're comfortable with self hosting docker you can use the matrix whatsapp bridge to use WhatsApp without having to install it on your device. https://github.com/mautrix/whatsapp and https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy

Most used selfhosted services in 2022?
Sure, I use this bridge (https://github.com/mautrix/facebook) to bridge synapse server to my facebook account, so I can use facebook messenger through my synapse server. I like it mainly so I don't have to install facebook messenger on my phone.

The first beta of Slidge (XMPP bridges) is out
It's unrelated, except for the fact that I used the reverse engineering of the facebook messenger protocol by the mautrix team. [1]
I may add a "matrix plugin" [2] if I feel like it someday, but probably after I implement group chat support. Then you'll be able to use XMPP<->Matrix<->some-other-thing for extra over-engineering points. ;)
I prefer XMPP because it's lighter on resources, server-wise at least, and it's managed through a democratic process, which has it upsides and downsides. As someone I like said "democracy is boring, dictatorship works faster".

There exists a Matrix-Facebook bridge, but unfortunately it requires a home server to run it and many people can't afford that.

mautrix-whatsapp error: access token invalid
I've recently set up a synapse instance on my home server using the official docker image, and a mautrix-facebook bridge also using docker. So far it's all working great! However, I've had issues setting up mautrix-whatsapp: when I follow the setup instructions on the GitHub I get the following error:
- Let’s chat about RCS

Better than WhatsApp: Try these Free Software Apps and Services
The bridges can get a little more complicated, here's the facebook setup instructions for python, but if that's too much for you then I'd reconsider beeper (p.s. they said thanks for the feedback on the sign-up form). I don't know anything about their payment options, but I know that you can always just use the Element chat client, available for web, android, ios, desktop in the usual stores.
