Please take some time to answer the following questions as best you can:

Why is it awesome?

Status is a lightweight system monitoring app written in Python having only one dependency. It provides a fair amount of hardware information like CPU, physical memory, network and storage. Reported to work flawlessly on most Intel and AMD PCs, and even on Raspberry Pis. This makes Status a perfect solution for small homeservers.

Have you used it? For how long?

Yes, I have. I am currently using Status on my homeserver with some self-hosted services. It is running painlessly since November 2022.

Is this in a personal or professional setup?

Since it's running on a small homeserver, it's a personal setup.

How many devices/users/services/... do you manage with it?

Status only allows monitoring machine it is hosted on.

Biggest pros/cons compared to other solutions?

Pros: Easy to use and provides fairly enough information about the host. Has little requirements to make it running.

Cons: Very advanced sysadmins might find it too basic and missing some information. No Windows/Mac support.

Any other comments about your use case, things you've found excellent, limitations you've encountered... ?

Excellent is to have lightweight system monitoring app with decent-looking & responsive UI. The main limitation is no per-core CPU usage and temperature (however it is present in API).
