Here it is on my Forma, it's a very thin (few pixels?) line at the very bottom of the device:

Very unobtrusive. The thin line also doesn't change how much text fits on the screen one bit. |
Thanks. It gets most of the job done with essentially no cost in screen real estate and I think hardly anyone would find it obtrusive. I think they should consider adding chapter indicators (darker or lighter). Maybe some would find that distracting (but I would hope not).
As to how thick/thin it is, that is what screenshots are for. I did some searching and apparently screenshots on kobos is a bit fiddly and the capability comes and goes with firmware updates.
It's interesting that features usually show up on kobo before kindle, but in this case kindle had a more fully featured version 10 years before and dropped it 6 years before it even appeared on kobo.
