Is it at all possible to have a server dashboard?

Keep up with all my tech statuses kind of like homarr?

Take a look at the System Monitor integration.

The System monitor integration allows you to monitor disk usage, memory usage, network usage, CPU usage, and running processes.
These entities are disabled by default. Enable the ones you want to see.
Then, it is just a matter of designing your dashboard with the information you want to see and how.

Here, I use an Entities card to show uptime and if some updates are available. (Note: card_mod applied for some styling.)

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.home_assistant_uptime
    icon: mdi:home-assistant
  - entity: update.home_assistant_operating_system_update
  - entity: update.home_assistant_core_update
    hold_action:
      service: update.install
      data:
        backup: true
  - entity: update.home_assistant_supervisor_update
  - entity: update.hacs_update
show_header_toggle: false
state_color: true
card_mod:
  style: |
    ha-card {
      border: solid 1px var(--primary-text-color);
      background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)
    }

For individual updates from HACS, I use an auto entities card to "find" entities that have updates available. Each one it finds gets a custom:button-card stylized the way I want to see it. Pressing the card shows the more-info; holding the card does the update. (A layout-card helps with the layout options.)

type: vertical-stack
cards:
  - type: custom:auto-entities
    card:
      type: custom:layout-card
      layout_type: custom:grid-layout
      layout:
        mediaquery:
          "(max-width: 900px)": grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 50%)
          "(min-width: 901px)": grid-template-columns: repeat(5, 20%)
    card_param: cards
    filter:
      include:
        - domain: update
          state: "on"
          options:
            type: custom:button-card
            name: >
              [[[ return entity.attributes.friendly_name.replace(/update/ig,'');
              ]]]
            show_entity_picture: true
            state:
              - operator: template
                value: "[[[ return entity.attributes.in_progress == true ]]]"
                styles:
                  icon:
                    - animation: blink 1.5s ease infinite
            hold_action:
              action: call-service
              service: update.install
              data:
                entity_id: this.entity_id
      exclude:
        - state: unavailable
        - entity_id: "*demo*"
    else:
      type: markdown
      content: <ha-alert alert-type="info">No updates available</ha-alert>
    sort:
      method: name
      reverse: false
      numeric: false
    show_empty: true
```*I don't have any updates available to show this in action, but the icon will flash while it is updating and then the card will disappear when its done.*
