Toot

Ever since iStatMenus 7 came out and completely broke VoiceOver accessibility I was looking for a replacement Mac resource monitor which could quickly show me IE what app is currently eating up the CPU or ram without bringing up the activity monitor, and I think I found one that's not only better because it shows you more info, but also free and open-source. It's simply called Stats, and in the most recent version the developer has given the different menu icons clear VoiceOver labels. The only thing it doesn't currently have is the option to quickly open the different modules with hotkeys, and the menu icons only read their name and not displayed values so you need to open a module to read it, but both of these are in the works. https://github.com/exelban/stats

@pitermach Oh my god, thank you for finding this. I was wondering if a replacement would ever show up.

@masonasons NP. I saw it recommended on reddit, saw it was really close to being perfect so reached out to the dev to fix up the labeling. Glad I did.

@pitermach I love it when developers actually care about that.
