The first time you open the window after the update you would have received a popup explaining that sync history and activity were combined into a single list. Perhaps you dismissed it quickly like I almost did.
So instead of seeing any kind of progress ...
The list still shows shows sync progress along with a list of all files that have synced. I've masked personal information, but each file listed was displaying the recent sync activity for that file, as well as the progress and size for the file that was currently syncing.

no - that is my point - my 'Your Activity' only shows the message saying 'Here you'll find files or folders you've recently interacted with.' It does not show anything like what you see with your Test.mp4 file. I used to be able to see that and now all I see is the message instead of the progress of the file syncing. I've tried checking preferences and elsewhere in the window to see if there is any way to get the sync info to show in Your Activity and I find nothing. I also have tried checking my account in the desktop/dropbox.com and nothing there shows the sync progress either.
