Public bug reported: Starting about a week ago, https://web.whatsapp.com stopped working with Ubuntu's Chromium, it suggests to install Google Chrome.
If change useragent from userAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/70.0.3538.110 Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36 to userAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36 or rebuild chromium-browser without chromium_useragent.patch, than this piece of buggy shit starts to work with Chromium I tried to reach WhatsApp monkeys by writing to [email protected], but did not get an answer from human. Sorry, but I hate WhatsApp. I've made this bug just to inform you about the problems that the patched useragent may cause and to help other people solve the problem. ** Affects: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1808853 Title: Buggy WhatsApp misdetects Chromium with Ubuntu's patched useragent To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1808853/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
