It depends how interesting and/or relevant it is.
Dune actually only has quotes (imaginary) separating “chapters”.
Most of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels have simple scene breaks and no chapter breaks*. Footnotes are annoying in fiction and eventually Pratchett stopped doing them. They also don’t work well (or at all sometimes) in real ebooks as they don’t have design-time pages.
[* some others seem to lack chapters]

Oh, and leadins such as small caps or drop caps reduce readibility and accessibility even on paper, They often fail in ebooks.
No indent at start of chapter or after scene break, then 1.3em / 16pt indent for regular paragraphs. Only extra space between paragraphs on printed kids books if no indent.
