+#  desired, setting --cluster.listen-address= prevents Alertmanager from
+#  listening to incoming peer requests.
+# Why the fuck is that in the readme, not the docs below?
+# If you don't add that, it will fail to start on boot because
+# it doesn't wait for network.target, and gives this error message:
+#  component=cluster err="couldn't deduce an advertise address: no private IP found, explicit advertise addr not provided"
