Hi!
I wrote some explanation of the current challenges with the magic suffixes in Prometheus and conflicting metric conventions (Prom and Otel) with some ideas how to simplify some aspects: https://docs.google.com/document/d/10Z1XKeQXxJAc_jKW0qEC8G4krlPTmE89k31FJfPVbro/edit?tab=t.0 (vision doc)
Make sure to also check Fabian's doc about similar here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VbqxXmtZmU9MWvK936uf80ulaR7X9xU_PjrR05avKO8/edit?tab=t.0
Feel free to give feedback on the vision doc or here!
Kind Regards,
