I came to this conclusion as well. The README gives off some vibes but the sheer volume and writing style of the code comments is what really sells it for me. For example: https://github.com/grigio/network-monitor/blob/9dc470553bfdd... // Enhanced styling with column-specific classes and alignment This sort of marketing-speak isn't what people typically put in their code, LLMs love buzzwords. It's not just this, it's everything, but hopefully you get what I mean.

I see that you're parsing `ss` output in 'src/services/network.rs' (L22-L31) [1]. I find this to be a rather shaky foundation as any future drift or deviation in the `ss` utility's output could potentially yield unforeseen consequences. I'm vaguely aware that there are crates available in the Rust ecosystem for interrogating and manipulating sockets much more directly as well as high level abstractions for all things netlink (read: AF_NETLINK). Is wielding Rust's socket/netlink libraries unsuitable in some way, or was it merely deemed out of the design scope? Very cool project, please keep going!

Cool project, I wish we had more GUIs for these OS functions. How was your experience with GTK4 and Rust? And it's a bit sad that in the year of our lord 2025, the best way to get such fundamental information is by using regexes to parse a table[1], generated by a 6000-line C program[2], which is verified by (I hope I'm wrong!) a tiny test suite[3]. OSQuery[4] is also pretty cool, but it builds upon this fragile stack. That's something I miss from Windows, at least PowerShell has built-in commands that give you structured output.
