To be fair, AGPLv3 is a very valid open source licence.

Now, poor and bad behaviour from the prom maintainers is a very fertile subject. If you want to see some real spicy threads check out the one where people raised that Prom’s calculation of rate is incorrect, or the thread where people asked for prom to interpolate secrets into its config from env cars - like every other bit of common cloud-adjacent software.

Both times prom devs behaved pretty poorly and left really bad taste in my mouth. Victoria Metrics seems like a much better replacement.
