This is going to annoy some "allies", pls know in advance that I don't care. Only false positives will be appealable.
Historic Grafana data from Loki/promtail export of firehose-client logs confirms that one of the example qualifiers matches abuse, with no false positives that I could see.

TIL: promtail is officially deprecated.

Somehow I don’t remember seeing that being announced.

We use OTEL for tracing in most of our services going to a local Tempo instance, we log using svlogd writing to a local logging directory that gets tailed by promtail and shipped to a local Loki instance. Grafana agents on each host get host metrics and scrape local containers to forward to Victoria

おはようございます。promtailはもうなくなってalloyというのに置き換わるんですね。というかgrafana cloudにデータを送り込みやすくするように中継するようなソフトとしてalloyを用意してpromtailの機能も包含したっていうことなのかな。grafana cloudから世の中の各種サービスにつないでいくという流れはありそうなのでそのあたりの整備がすすんでるんでしょうねぇ。grafanaきらいじゃないのでのっかってみるのもおもしろいかもしれん。

Dear DevOps Engineer,

If you use Promtail as your log collector and write to Loki, I have some news. The Grafana team is planning to replace Promtail with Grafana Alloy.

The alerts are logged and collated in a searchable form by promtail into Grafana. Prometheus Metrics are also visualized there.
The logs also include filter string matching for abusive accounts. See the search below that collates the 'get all my links' networks.
More ideas welcome.

Neat #mastoadmin hackery today; I've finally gotten VictoriaLogs and Promtail set up so that I can see all of the logs from wandering.shop in one place.

I switched from Promtail to OTel Collector for application logs and reduced the average CPU usage by 20% (4vCPU VPS). Disk I/O was also reduced from 2.5MB writes to 200kB. 🥳

Infrastructure Gap: PDS Monitoring 📊

@openmeet.net raised a good point: the standard PDS container doesn't export Prometheus metrics natively yet.

Operators are currently relying on:
1. Sidecar log scraping (promtail/fluent-bit)
2. Blackbox exporters on `/xrpc/_health`
