We noticed that the submissions from "Other" channels (in this case, ones that are not "release", "beta", "aurora", or "nightly") are on the rise. Corroborated at both [1] and [2].
My theory is that it could be due to Unified Telemetry landing in the Extended Support Release (esr) channel.
In order to check that, we should filter by normalized channel == 'Other', then group the submissions by the actual channel name in the payload (for main pings, this would be found in the `application.channel` part of the payload[3].

I had a notebook with easy access to this data already, so adding it for posterity.

Since this has sat for a while, I want to confirm we're talking about the increase in Other Pings that appears to start on 2016-06-10 [0]. It looks like peak Other Pings appear to roughly double in a week. This event is now out of range on the budget dashboard [1]
We can verify this question with STMO [4]. It looks like the increase in Other Pings is clearly from increasing ESR pings[2].
As always, a plot is worth a thousand words:
