Hmm. I see status updates but they are changes in people's status, not stories, there's only ever a handful of updates, and it just shows the names of the people who updated their WhatsApp status, which happens very rarely. There's no feed there, nothing to scroll.

Below that I see Channels, a list of companies to follow, and an "explore more" button. Which I haven't touched and don't intend to. If that's where the feed is... well, I don't know what people expected, it's obviously going to be corporate marketing.
