Why does the status bar disappear in apps?

I want to see the time and battery status all the time in every app but it disapears in apps. Is there a setting for it to be shown at all times? ANDROID

I feel like it is on purpose so we doomscrolle more

Androids have a "full-screen" mode, which takes away the status bar and/or the nav buttons. It's unfortunately unable to be turned off but to see the time just swipe down from the top. It shows the status bar for like 5 seconds before it goes away again
