As in, when I watched YouTube tutorials, I often see YouTubers have a small widget on their desktop giving them an overview of their ram usage, security level, etc. What apps do you all use to track this?

Alerts are much more important than fancy dashboards.

It depends, If you have to install lot of stuff or manage a lot of thing it's a good idea to have one but if you mainly do maintenance and you want to have something reliable yes you should have an alerts, for exemple I don't have a lot of thing install and doesn't rly care about reliability so I do everything in terminal, I use arch btw
