I'm interested in giving franz a try (predominantly for WhatsApp and Facebook messenger on the desktop) and wanted to know if anyone had any experience with, or guidance about, the app?

Since the app appears to require an account I thought I'd check I wasn't signing up for something terrible first.

I did use franz at some point but eventually switched to ferdium, which doesn't require an account. That being said I haven't used either for a while now.

Can I use Whatsapp in Ferdium without having the app installed on my mobile? I stopped using Whatsapp because I was not OK with its snoopiness and privacy issues.

IIRC you have to have the app installed on your phone and be in the same network, but it's been a while.
