I can't speak for everyone, but I've been using WhatsApp since ~2010, mostly the official client but with bouts of unofficial client usage, and I've never been banned.

Probably not very detectable for Meta since it uses a wrapped webview, but I've been using ZapZap on Linux for a good while now and I haven't seen a ban yet.

if something can happen and haven't happened to you, doesn't warrant a comment i believe. it doesn't help much to figure the data points for the cases were it does happen, since it's implied everyone to whom it have happened would have lots of opportunities to post comments it never happened before.

Interesting, my naive understanding is that push notifications won't work and battery life should be greatly affected, how do things work for you?
