I've now learned that no epbus don't do pseudo elements on kobos, but someone was kind enough to give me some CSS that should help get my kepubs to start showing page breaks so I won't have to manually split up HTML files. Haven't had a chance:time to try it out yet, but I'm optimistic and will report back when I have the chance!

Finally I've honestly never noticed any difference between any of my books that are on my kobo that are epubs vs epubs so ����*♀️. So long as they look like how I want them to, I'm happy.
Manually splitting the files in the calibre editor is a matter of go to where you want the break in the preview. Click the icon to the left of the refresh icon. The move the mouse point into the preview window. When the line is where you want the break, click and the file will split at that point.

If you want to read ePub, you'll need to use spans instead of pseudo elements. If you want to read KePub, you can use pseudo elements. But don't read those eBooks as ePub as the pseudo elements will not work. If you are unsure of where you want to read the book use spans and you'll be able to read as ePub or KePub.
