Wait, what? You missed Michele Manciopi's "Zero to #OpenTelemetry" talk at the @jugka last week? 
That'd be a shame, as it was quite ... awesome! 
But no worries, we got you covered. It took a bit, but here's the fully edited version for your edutainment. 
Enjoy!

The observability world loves a good rivalry — but this isn’t one.
#Prometheus and #OpenTelemetry are evolving together, not apart. Myrle Krantz, Director of Engineering, explains why.
For the 2nd straight year, half of all organizations invested more in #Prometheus & #OpenTelemetry.
This data is based on our 3rd annual Observability Survey, which features insights from 1,200+ respondents in observability.
Have you observed something similar in your team/organization?

We hope everyone is enjoying KubeCon EU!
Today's blog post is all about the #OpenTelemetry community. In a follow-up to his KubeCon talk of the same name, Governance Committee member Juraci Paixão Kröhling shares his interviews with community members, learning what they love and hate about #OTel. Whether you're an end user or a project contributor, we hear you and value your feedback!

The results are in! Check out our latest blog post that reports the findings of the #OpenTelemetry Developer Experience Survey.
Thank you to the 218 participants! Your feedback will help improve #OTel #DevEx in key areas, including the documentation, SDKs, and the Collector.
We recently welcomed Ted Young, #OpenTelemetry co-founder, to Grafana Labs as our Developer Programs Director.
We're so excited to have Ted on board, and in this Q&A, you can learn a bit more about his background (in both technology and animation) and what he sees on the horizon for the #OTel open source project. https://grafana.com/blog/2025/03/27/meet-ted-young-opentelemetry-co-founder-and-the-newest-grafanista/?camp=blog&mdm=social&src=masto
The #OpenTelemetry JavaScript SDK 2.0 is here!
I love seeing new folks getting involved in open source.
Congrats Afonso Fernandes on your the merge of your first contribution to @opentelemetry CI/CD Special Interest Group (SIG)!

And if you're coming to #KubeCon EU next week in London, join our SIG talk:
Propagating #OpenTelemetry context when using #VirtualThreads & Structured Concurrency by @adamwarski
Unfortunately Oban won't be officially supported until opentelemetry_oban is updated to support latest #OpenTelemetry Semantic Conventions. You will be able to use its fork though like I did.
We're gonna ship tracing support working with Phoenix, Bandit and Ecto initially and that's a great start!
Did you know there are also English talks here? 
On the 25th of March 2025, Harry Kimpel is going to talk about “#Monitoring #Kafka Based Applications Using Distributed Tracing with #OpenTelemetry”.
