Yes, gave your tried recently? Wathsapp Is banning users Just because they use it on lineage os without google apps... Not common, but it's happening.
I was lineage os maintainer and still follow a few forums. And this topic is recurrent in the last months.
I am on Lineage with no gapps, I do have microg though, but not logged in. And have been for a couple years. No problems with Whatsapp so far, and banking apps too for that matter.
Is "no google services" the issue here? I still have waydroid but with google play at the moment
Whatsapp web is so unbearably slow i might just use waydroid lol, thanks for reminding
EDIT: it is fast but it is using %50 of a core at all times🤷♂️ Aaand now it is calmly sitting in the background, no cpu usage
I think it's an issue with rooted or bootloader unlocked phones mostly ....
I should have been more clear... Waydroid uses LineageOS as its Android image and since it is used on x86_64 (it also supports ARM but > %90 of Android image downloads are x86_64) it is basically worse than phones with custom ROMs from the perspective of app developers trying to lock down stuff / create security.
