For no reason I can work out, WhatsApp web isn't loading chats - the rest of the page loads (although I can't navigate to 'Settings' or 'Profile' etc) but none of the chats show up. Their crap AI 'support' was useless. Is it just me or does WA have a wider issue?

Edit: doesn't work in Incognito so it's not a browser extension causing an issue.

Edit: just tried it on a completely different PC (different location) and doesn't work there either.

Edit: Ah. https://downdetector.co.uk/status/whatsapp/

Assuming this is Windows otherwise you'd be using the app? Does Windows not have an app like the Mac? It's brilliant.

Yeah there is a desktop app but I just use the browser. It's all been working again since mid-afternoon.
