Why are there good mods for Discord (Aliucord, Vendetta…) and YouTube (Revanced), but no good mods for WhatsApp?
I feel like all apps by the user-stalking company Meta are not modded enough, though they are some of the most-used apps.

It supports WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption and it supports Matrix’s end-to-end encryption, but the two are not compatible.
The bridge receives the end-to-end encrypted messages from WhatsApp, puts them into end-to-end encrypted chats on the Matrix side, and the other way around. The messages get decrypted into memory where they’re readable (for a short while).
Until WhatsApp enables some kind of cross-platform messaging protocol (MLS/MIMI perhaps?), the temporary decryption is essential for the bridge to work.
