Building home observability on Raspberry Pi without drowning the SD card: what to collect, what to skip, and how to keep the stack lighter than the workloads it watches.

A long-form retrospective on building an observability stack with Prometheus, Grafana, and Loki, focused on practical alerting and incident response.
