Cool, did not know this and used readonly groups (with one writer) for this before: [Wayback/Archive] WhatsApp Help Center – How to use broadcast lists
Via: [Archive] Sylvia on Twitter: “Ik wist nooit van t bestaan van verzendlijsten op whapp. Zusje kwam er gisteravond mee. Ging wereld voor mij open. Ideaal in deze situatie. Gewoon 1 bericht er uit en hele familie en vriendenkring is op de hoogte.”

Easiest way to video call from your PC via WhatsApp is to use [Wayback/Archive] WhatsApp: Download – Mac or Windows PC.
This should be an alternative for Hangouts Video Calling as Hangouts is yet another product killed by Google as mentioned in many places for instance:

This option in Chrome has moved around a bit, so here is how it was in Version 89.0.4389.90 (Official Build) (64-bit) when I documented it.
chrome://discards/
https://web.whatsapp.com/ , so I searched for whatsapp which you see as orange in the screenshots below) for which you want to ensure it will never sleep/hibernate (Chrome calls this “discardable”)
Toggle under the checkmark ✔ so it changes into a cross ✘️ (so the URL will never be discarded, hence always stays awake)Do this only for tabs that are not CPU/memory/traffic intensive
I got there via these posts:
chrome://flags that does not work for this problem any more)chrome://discards alternative.When searching for discards, I found this post: [Wayback] How to Prevent Chrome from Reloading Tabs When You Switch to Them
Chrome has built-in memory management that causes inactive tabs to “sleep” as RAM is filled. When you click the tab again, it has to reload the page. It’s annoying.

[Wayback] Contact opnemen | Persoonsgebonden budget | SVB had this:
UX: 2FA needed as of October, but which year?
If you are going to introduce a change in a certain period of time, ensure you not just mention only a part of when it occurs: include at least year and month, possibly even day and time.
That way your users know if they still have some time left to setup 2FA, or won’t be able to logon without 2FA at all.

Not sure when this happened but the CIDR list is no more [WayBack] https://www.whatsapp.com/cidr.txt:
Dear partners, Please note that we have migrated the latest IP pools of WhatsApp to Facebook Mobile Partner Portal. Feel free to browse to the Settings page of the portal and download the latest WhatsApp IP pool: https://fb.me/mpp_support Further IP pool updates are also done through the portal and are no longer distributed via email or through WhatsApp web site. If you have not yet registered on the Mobile Partner Portal or have difficulties accessing it - please request access through the following form and we'll be happy to assist: https://fb.me/mpp_access For any technical requests please contact us through the Support section of the portal: https://fb.me/mpp_support WhatsApp team
In the past it was the place to get the CIDR so you could either block or allow WhatsApp traffic: [earlier WayBack]
It is still widely cited as way to regulate WhatsApp traffic, for instance at these places:
Time to find an automated way to get the replacement list. Maybe the below helps (via [WayBack] Block facebook messenger and whatsApp on Dlink router – Super User)
