OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated
VictoriaMetrics CTO here.
The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].
Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.
VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

Top 11 Grafana Alternatives in 2023
VictoriaMetrics is primarily a time-series database designed for efficiently storing and querying time-series data. It is often used as a back-end data store for time-series data generated by monitoring systems like Prometheus. VictoriaMetrics excels at handling large volumes of time-series data, offering efficient storage and query capabilities.

μMon: Stupid simple monitoring
Did you try VictoriaMetrics [1] and vmagent [2]? It is a single self-contained binary without external dependencies. It requires relatively low amounts of CPU, RAM, disk space and disk IO, and it runs on ARM.

If I understanding correctly, it deal with high cardinality by dropping data, the operators need to monitor for this and adjust their data to lower the cardinality.

OpenTelemetry in 2023
You shouldn't unless you want to use the new open source standard for telemetry. You won't benefit from simplicity or performance improvements. It would be quite the opposite. You can check what is the actual cost of open telemetry adoption here [0]
But if you ever decide to go this path - VictoriaMetrics supports OpenTelemetry protocol for metrics [1]

netdata is suddenly reporting 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day
We run netdata to have a bit of insight into whats happening on the 10+ dedicated servers in Falkenstein. So far we have seen a 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable about once a month. Suddenly we get 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day from different servers. Any ideas why that could be happening?

μMon: Stupid simple monitoring
hey - I work on ML at Netdata (disclaimer).
We have a big PR open and under review at moment that brings in a lot more logs capabilities: https://github.com/netdata/netdata/pull/13291
We also have some specific logs collectors too - i think in here might be best place to look around at the moment, should take you to the logs part of the integrations section in our demo space (no login needed, sorry for the long horrible url, we adding this section to our docs soon but at moment only lives in the app)
