"on nooo i'm gonna stop using what make modern linux OS good just because they save logs in binary, istead of binary w ith .txt ππ" go ahead them, make your life worse

One can keep on using systemd and complain about journald and install rsyslogd and then you'd have the
journalctl -f
command to impress your Linux noob friends ;-) and /var/log/syslog when there's trouble when journald would be dead.if you can't access journald you have a bigger problem than crying about it's binary file format, but ok keep needing to parse every fucking log using grep and taking 30 second to find anything meaningful if you hate yourself that much
