On the main sequence.
The lower right part of the main sequence in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram contains the stars that took the longest to reach the main sequence. These stars are low mass and cool, so they undergo a longer contraction phase before they start fusing hydrogen in their cores and settle onto the main sequence.
The location on the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram where most stars lie is known as the main sequence. The HR diagram is a plot of stellar luminosity against surface temperature. The main sequence is a prominent band that extends diagonally across the HR diagram from high temperature and high luminosity to low temperature and low luminosity. The majority of stars, approximately 90% of all stars, are situated along the main sequence on the HR diagram. These stars are often referred to as main-sequence stars. They exhibit a smooth relationship between surface temperature and luminosity, with varying sizes and masses but sharing this common characteristic of lying on the diagonal band from the upper left to the lower right of the HR diagram.

The three main groups of stars on the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram are main sequence stars, red giants, and white dwarfs. Main sequence stars, which comprise the majority of stars, fuse hydrogen into helium in their cores and are found along a diagonal band from the upper left to the lower right. Red giants, located in the upper right, are evolved stars that have expanded and cooled after exhausting their hydrogen. White dwarfs, found in the lower left, are remnants of stars that have shed their outer layers and are no longer undergoing fusion.
The Sun is classified as a G-type main-sequence star (G dwarf) on the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram. It has a surface temperature of about 5,500 degrees Celsius and an absolute magnitude of approximately +4.83. On the HR diagram, the Sun is located in the middle of the main sequence, where it occupies a position indicative of its mass and luminosity relative to other stars.
Of course they are on the HR diagram. They are simply not on the main sequence.

Several regions of the HR diagram have been given names, although stars can occupy any portion. The brightest stars are called supergiants. Star clusters are rich in stars just off the main sequence called red giants. Main sequence stars are called dwarfs.

The curve that currently contains most stars on the HR diagram is called the "main sequence". It consists of those stars that fuse hydrogen-1, converting it into helium-4.

In the HR-diagram, a diagram of color vs. luminosity, most stars are concentrated close to one curve, called the "main sequence". It turns out that stars on the main sequence are the stars that mainly get their energy by converting hydrogen into helium.

Slightly to the right of centre on the main sequence. If you look on the Australian Telescope National facility website, their HR diagram shows the position of the sun.
