What I am really missing in these (really nice) alternatives to ELK is Kibana and its Lens. I tried to tapping this with Grafana but never learned to have graphs as easily as with Kibana. Maybe I was not trying hard enough? Has anyone replaced Kibana with Grafana for non time based graphs?

Good point. Several users are asking us the OpenDashboard/Kibana compatibility, and this is on the 2024 roadmap. That being said, we also hear users complaining about OpenDashboard/Kibana, looking for an alternative different from Kibana/Grafana explore view (the view used for log and tracing search). You will also find users satisfied by the Grafana Explore view. Personally, I don't find the Grafana Explore view great for log searches. I saw that Grafana recently made some improvements, and I need to dig into that to adapt the Quickwit Grafana plugin. I don't have a clear opinion on Kibana, one of my dreams is to build a better UI for log/traces search anyway, not yet on the roadmap though :)
