I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but the behavior of journald is fairly dynamic and can be configured to an obnoxious degree, including compression and sealing.
By default, the size limit is 4GB:
If anything I tend to have the opposite problem: whoops I forgot to set up logrotate for this log file I set up 6 months ago and now my disk is completely full. Never happens for stuff that goes to journald.
It can be, but the defaults are freaking stupid and often do not work.
Aren’t the defaults set by your distro?
AAfaict Debian uses the upstream defaults.
