CLUSTER MANAGER-MONITOR-DISPLAYS · 13 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-10-14

System monitors and task managers

This cluster comprises native system monitors, task managers, and status-bar widgets tracking processes, CPU, memory, disk, and network usage across Linux, Windows, and X11 systems. The dated entry history from late 2020 to early 2026 shows a sparse, steady trickle of new projects, typically one every few months, with a slight consolidation to two in February 2026. AetherPC leads in traction with 6 stars, while tmog-bin and lib32-libprocps trail with 0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 13 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
