Syslog
GoToSocial can be configured to mirror logs to syslog, either via udp/tcp, or a local syslog (eg., /var/log/syslog).
This is useful if you want to daemonize GtS and not handle log rotations etc yourself but rely on a proven implementation.
Logs in syslog will look something like this:
Dec 12 17:44:03 dilettante ./gotosocial[246860]: time=2021-12-12T17:44:03+01:00 level=info msg=connected to SQLITE database
Dec 12 17:44:03 dilettante ./gotosocial[246860]: time=2021-12-12T17:44:03+01:00 level=info msg=there are no new migrations to run func=doMigration

# to a specific place, either a local location or a syslog server. Most users will
# not need to touch these settings.
