Opentracing integration would be great

Happy to open a PR for this, assume we should use opentelemetry at this point https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-go/tree/main/trace

I agree. OpenTelemetry is the new standard.

Hardest part is that there isn't much context usage in the internal apis currently so span propagation is tough. It's easy enough to add but makes for a large change.

Guessing db / redis actions and bcrypt operations are probably most interesting to get spans around did you have anything else in mind?

I remember trying to implement opentracing back in 2018 but I gave up because of this.
