I might be mistaken, but I always thought that status pages are supposed to be hosted by a third party. Am I supposed to have this run on a separate (presumably) dedicated server? Otherwise what's the point of having this running if it becomes inaccessible the instant my server goes down?

It entirely depends on your reason and expectation of the service. Yes, it would be best to separately host it on entirely different infra. However, if you have 1 x server, and you want to check that the services it is running are functional (such as a web server, app and database are functional), then co-locating this on there would be ok, providing the server itself doesn't go AWOL. However, running this on a dedicated virtual server or raspberry pi would likely be always better.

In case of status page you would want to host it in a different server / zone.
