Yep very weird, should have been 255.
No, you can't have a group of zero, so the counter doesn't need to waste a position counting zero.
0 is reserved for the FBI agent listening in.
It's an ICE agent now
Nah, ICE agents don't care about evidence.
Tell that to the Castlevania 2 devs. https://lemmy.ml/comment/19720906
Sure you can. It's a group that exists, but it has 0 participants.
If you ever create a system where the number of users is "group.members - 1" everywhere in the code, I'd be very disappointed in you and deny that PR.
On another note; I doubt WhatsApp are so concerned with performance they are actually limiting the number of group members by the data type.
You cannot also have a group of 1, therefore either is 255 or 257. 256 is oddly specific (or the code was made by an intern)
Sure you can.
Oh. At this point I'm not sure what is worse :/
I mean, should the group and all the messages get deleted when the second to last person leaves? it only makes sense to let it stay as a 1 member group
