Thank you for not only sharing that info in a clear and concise manner, but doing it in style with a great soundtrack. You just saved me a few hours work and I'm still grooving! Nice Work.

Unfortunately, Almost all promtail documentation assumes users are familiar with prometheus already, the information on scrapers and configs could offer some background or more detail. Is there a video that does not skip right over configs and scrapers? I really tried to use Loki, but without being able to figure out promtail I gave up
