hmm still no Linux desktop client? it’s been like 3 years
Wait till you hear how horrible Kakaotalk in Korea is… Total monopoly (97%>), no support for web, linux or basically any other OS beside Windows/Mac, no multi device, no API, filled with Ads…
Fuck you Kakao. Fuck you and your tiny dick.
no support for web, linux or basically any other OS beside Windows/Mac
And mobile devices, which is really the target market anyhow. Also, does “kaokaotalk online” not supply a web version?
There is no Kakaotalk Online.

I’m lazy. I want to answer video and voice calls without switching from what I’m doing while I work.
Isn’t it just a web app/electron on windows anyway? I’ve run a whatsapp “client” on linux for years without problems.
Nope they have native client on windows and Mac that can make phone/video call
This is the best summary I could come up with:
WhatsApp today introduced screen sharing as its latest feature to enhance the video-calling experience on its platform — taking on traditional video conferencing apps, including Microsoft Meet, Google Meet, Zoom, and Apple’s FaceTime.
The new feature, announced this morning by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg through a Facebook post and on his Instagram channel, will allow you to share your documents, photos, and even your shopping cart with contacts available on video calls.
This is similar to how screen sharing works on typical video-conferencing platforms like Google Meet and Zoom.
WhatsApp told TechCrunch that the screen-sharing feature has started rolling out on Android, iOS, and Windows Desktop in a phased manner.
Screen sharing has been a crucial feature of video-conferencing apps for a while now, including those aimed at consumers.
In 2021, for example, Apple enhanced its FaceTime service with SharePlay, which enabled iOS users to share their screens natively.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
That’s nice and all, but where’s the native iPad app?
Telegram had this for at least 3 years now.
To be fair, WhatsApp hasn’t had any serious feature development up until the last year or so, so as far as features go, they’re playing catch-up.
Not to be a dick, but Telegram (as much as I love it) has had a terrible Video Chat experience. The overall quality is heavy… And it’s buggy.
I never had any issues with it. I use it on Android and Linux.
That’s… weird… Windows Desktop and Android. The audio quality fluctuates alot.
Compared to the same hardware on Meet, the quality fluctuates a lot on Telegram.
To be fair, it’s been over 4 months since I last used it. Let’s see.
Facebook really wants everyone’s lunch. First Snapchat & Twitter, now Teams/Zoom
Nice feature but just seems greedy
I’ll take things to avoid for $1000 Alex.
