Something I have been wondering is whether the Go bootstrap, wherein Go is itself built from Go 1.4, also needs to be updated so that Go bootstraps from Go 1.17 or 1.18. The reason for this is the change in syntax for build conditionals. Go

One of the engineers has suggested trying: ```cat <files> | promtail -stdin``` Though we like the idea as a feature request... "Have promtail support reading a file or directory and exiting once complete". So we've put

Oh, this is interesting. So in theory one could create a web app client over this, and allow people to host their own client instances (locally, on their laptop) or to provide semi-centralised nodes. Why? Because this would overcome the lim
