status
Where you stand
Status is someone's or something's position, condition, or standing relative to others.
It often implies rank in a hierarchy: She achieved celebrity status overnight.
Social status suggests prestige or importance within a community.
Status can also simply mean current state or situation: What's the status of the project?
On social media, a status is a post updating others about what you're doing or thinking.
