Description
In the Silences list view, it would be helpful to display who created the silencer and the reason for silencing it. This would allow for a quick understanding of why a silencer was created without needing to inspect each one individually.
Impact
- Improves visibility and understanding of silences.
- Reduces the need for manual inspection of individual silencers.
- Enhances operational efficiency for teams managing silences.
