 ## unreleased
 
+* [BUGFIX] PromQL: Only return "possible non-counter" annotation when `rate` returns points. #14910
 * [FEATURE] OTLP receiver: Add new option `otlp.promote_resource_attributes`, for any OTel resource attributes that should be promoted to metric labels. #14200
 * [ENHANCEMENT] OTLP receiver: Warn when encountering exponential histograms with zero count and non-zero sum. #14706
 * [BUGFIX] tsdb/wlog.Watcher.readSegmentForGC: Only count unknown record types against record_decode_failures_total metric. #14042
