  • 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:

    SystemMaxUse= and RuntimeMaxUse= control how much disk space the journal may use up at most. SystemKeepFree= and RuntimeKeepFree= control how much disk space systemd-journald shall leave free for other uses. systemd-journald will respect both limits and use the smaller of the two values.

    The first pair defaults to 10% and the second to 15% of the size of the respective file system, but each value is capped to 4G.











  • Essentially, their entire schtick is being a middleman. By sitting between the server you want to visit, they can do helpful things like DDOS protection, being a CDN (basically store website assets closer to you), managing HTTPS for you and providing access to your website over IPv6 even if your server doesn’t have it.

    By nature of that though, their position is quite sensitive since it has become a service that a good chunk of the Internet goes through. That causes concerns about centralization and pisses in a lot of people’s cereals politically.

    It’s the same thing with different presentation, I highly doubt Valve is not aware of it, quite the opposite.

    It’s something that requires a lot of technical prowess to fix (especially to not disappoint the community now). I don’t blame Valve employees with not wanting to work with it, especially with TF2 code probably counting as legacy nowadays.

    In all fairness, Linux got 64 bit and Vulkan so maybe there’s still some people interested but their damage control for bot chat spam (read, disabling chat for free to play) got flamed so that’s not confidence inspiring.
