Nothing is "gone" as others have said go to viewer preferences, configure the viewer and continue reading as before.

Functionality has not been disabled. While in the viewer, hit escape or right click on the viewer text then configure the preferences as you see fit.

Then configure pages / progress to show in headers / footers.

In reviewing recent threads it seems that the entire viewer had to be rewritten since the underlying screen renderer had been completely changed and the old one was no longer being supported.
If you have ideas to improve the viewer then ask Kovid and see if they can be implemented. Whining is counter-productive.
Attached is the way I like it. If I wanted a scroll bar on the right I would enable it in preferences. If I wanted the Table of contents (TOC) I would press ctrl T or open it in preferences. The TOC will remain showing across books as long as you keep it open. Hard to see here, but I show the time of day in the top right header.
