If it is non-compliant endpoint, the problem should appear in both versions, isn't it? It is effecting more than one series. The set up is in corporate org so I cannot expose end points publicly.
I have an prometheus front end instance that remote reads from multiple prometheus backends. the time series is sharded across multiple backends. The results are also inconsistent in 2.18.1. Sometimes I get fewer time series back but what is consistent is the last data point is duplicated on all time series. Just switching front end to 2.4 with same configuration file fixes the problem.
