Devil's advocate (and as a very lightweight Whatsapp user), is this just based on a scrape/listen of how whatsapp currently works, so maybe prone to breaking?

Devil's advocate (and as a very lightweight Whatsapp user), is this just based on a scrape/listen of how whatsapp currently works, so maybe prone to breaking?
Pessimistically any bit of code can scrape a present day service, is this easily maintanable, how often will it break, maybe permanently?
That said, fair play for sharing in the open, just querying the long term efficacy of using it.
Unless using an official API, things can be a bit brittle.
- jeroenhd 3y agoI've been using a Matrix bridge for WhatsApp for a couple of years, and rarely bother updating the container. I don't think I've ever run into an API deprecation issue. Perhaps there are implementation differences between this and the Go library underlying the Matrix bridge, but I don't think API incompatibilities should be a concern.
