distributed tracing which tool fits your needs

hey everyone, i've been thinking a lot about observability lately, especially in distributed systems. we've got a few microservices chugging along, and trying to debug issues across them feels like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle in the dark. i know tools like Jaeger, Zipkin, and OpenTelemetry are out there. for those of you using distributed tracing, what's your experience been? are there any particular benefits or drawbacks to specific tools you've found? what factors should we consider when choosing one for a growing system? curious to hear your thoughts and recommendations
