Do people really use those?

No one in my contacts ever use it, me included.

I'm an extremely heavy WhatsApp user, as are most of my community.

Maybe like 3-5 people use stories regularly. I only swipe to the "Status" tab to get rid of the little notification dot.

I don't. And most millenials don't use it unless they are extroverts. But we make a small percentage of their audience.

Take a look at boomer WhatsApp in India. Every single boomer shares stories with images of Gods or daily morning blessings, where they went, what they cooked etc.

Boomers don't care about the platforms. They will go where their kids go and continue posting there.
