#22Apologies if this is a dumb question, but is this related at all to the popular Sentry that captures stack traces and such? It seems like it isn't, but I can't tell from looking through the website. If it's totally separate, that's a quite unfortunate namespace collision
Hopefully that helps, and definitely something that is quite tough to clarify but we are still looking to improve upon.
Also added a ticket here to track this in case other folks have thoughts: https://github.com/getsentry/spotlight/issues/243

Its related in that we (Sentry) built it, and that it uses Sentry's open source SDKs to create its payloads, but its separate in that it doesnt require Sentry's monitoring service to work.

#25Earlier quoted context omitted.
Both say 'Unable to connect' for me (Firefox built in page) in the UK. Which I think means the name resolved but no response. (But I'm on mobile so can't say more than that.)
Are you using NextDNS by chance? Someone reported an issue with it blocking the domain on there, but it was unclear _which_ setting was blocking it. Was also odd given its just a Vercel website and the domain (afaik) was unused prior.

Ah yes, that helps a ton! So when the doc says "Sentry" it's talking about the Sentry we all know, not a new project called Sentry. Much appreciated

#28Spotlight has a pretty strong brand name for API dev tool - https://stoplight.io/ Could be confusion
Can we stop this? There's only so many names in this world and we're going to find overlap. If you're afraid of confusing two projects that are two completely separate things just because they share the same name, instead of reading what you're using, that's a you issue, not the projects.
stop vs spot
