I'm always frustrated when floccus claims it is syncing and I have no idea how much more I have to wait.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great if floccus could show percentage of how much work it has done, and how much more work remains (eg. percentage of job completed). The existing blue line could be used, but instead of it just going in loop from left to right and then again from left to right, it would only move incrementally depending on how much of the job was complete (eg. when sync starts it would be just an one blue dot at the left, when it is 50% done it would half the maximum length, and it would be near full length from left to right just before the sync is completed).

Describe alternatives you've considered

Floccus currently shows rotating arrows when it is syncing, as well as blue line above account name which goes from left to right, and then from left to right again etc. It does show it is supposedly doing something (although that claim is not always true, for example https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/916) , but it does not show how far has it progressed (eg. 10%, 40%, 70%, ...)

Additional context

Related: https://github.com/floccusaddon/floccus/issues/594 but it wasn't explained if user is not seeing the progress bar, or the progress indicator lacks the functionality to show "how many percent of the sync has been completed"
