It's called a "scrollbar" and shown in the browser.

You're right, there is something called a "scrollbar", but many people don't see it because they are using macOS which for some reason hides the scrollbars by default.

Also phones/touchpads don't see scrollbars I think.

macOS does indeed show the scrollbar at all times when a input device other than a touchpad is attached.

My desktop Mac never hides the scrollbar, as it uses a normal mouse, however when I was using a Magic Trackpad the scrollbar would indeed hide unless I was actively scrolling.

Odd behavior.

If someone is asking for an scroll indicator, it's safe to assume that, for some reason, the native scroll affordance has been hidden from them.

Indeed - but then the person asking should better look in the systems/browser settings; this has nothing to do with the website.
