"WhatsApp messages on computer without a mobile phone" , install anbox if you r on linux , you can also go for androidx86 install in virtualbox if you want the full experience and you can even install a full os like remix os on either virtualbox, or in dual boot(i recommend you anbox,cause you just need to use whatsapp, you can find many manuals on web on how to install it )

There is still no way to install a native Linux application for whatsapp, so I always use whatsapp's webapp with my daily browser (chromium based brave-browser). Everything works [mostly] fine, except when I need to click on a whatsapp link in a web site, that is supposed to open a conversation with a certain new cell phone number.

General Notice: There is no official WhatsApp desktop app for Linux.

Third-party apps from non-trusted sources may flood you with ads, hijack your session or introduce a backdoor to your client.

But the QR code that needs to be scanned by the Whatsapp mobile app is not loading. QR code loads perfectly fine on Chrome on Windows 8.1 and others systems having Ubuntu, without any glitch. QR code loads perfectly fine on Chrome on Windows 8.1 and others systems having Ubuntu, without any glitch.

The issue is essentially the same as for Chromium explained in WhatsApp Web is asking to update Chrome while using Chromium. Vivaldi isn’t supported by WhatsApp Web officially, so it used spoofing in the past, but a recent update broke that and the feature is not implemented again yet. There are three ways to work around the issue:
