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?

We use zabbix here. Zabbix is amazing and we put it in all of our templates so any new servers and hosts pop up on zabbix dashboard preconfigured just like that. For logs and security we use an Elastik "ELK stack" which gives us a heads up if anything is wrong in the logs, and zabbix gives us a head up of the systems health all together. Between the two, our health monitor panel combines the two windows so we can see full server health and any problems right there as a todo list for the IT team
