Why there is no WhatsApp for Linux?

There is no official WhatsApp desktop client for Linux, and Facebook has strictly attempted to ban third-party clients and plugins using their protocol. You might want to avoid using WhatsApp altogether in favor of IM services with more openness, such as XMPP, signal-desktop, Telegram or ICQ.

What apps work with Linux?

Spotify, Skype, and Slack are all available for Linux. It helps that these three programs were all built using web-based technologies and can be easily ported to Linux. Minecraft can be installed on Linux, too. Discord and Telegram, two popular chat applications, also offer official Linux clients.
