Comment:

 We discussed this ticket in today's design triage. We agree with
 @johnjamesjacoby that a separate status column would work. This way it's
 possible to filter and for instance, only see active sites or sites that
 are archived.

 Besides that, the colour status seems a bit much, maybe we can work with
 icons in the status column instead?

 We also think the different statuses could benefit from more
 clarification. What's the difference between deactivating and archiving a
 site? We think of clarifying on 2 levels: possible an info button next to
 the status column and extra info after changing a status. See attached
 screenshots as well.
