If you’re on arch you use redhat’s garbage. On non-corpo linux syslog can be disabled if you want, though I’d prefer to just symlink/mount /var/log to a memory filesystem instead.

Is it just a random tidbit that could be replaced with a blueberry muffin recipe without any change of meaning of the whole comment? Because it sure won’t help OP at all with their Arch-specific question, so it’s either that, or it provides contrast to the “corpo Linux”, which is how I interpreted it.
And here’s the remaining part of your comment I left out, just to make sure people won’t lose the context between two three sentence long comments (for those without any attention span, it comes before the previous quoted part):
OP was asking about syslog so I answered about using using syslog. You’re reading too much into it. They asked if they could go with or without a syslog daemon, so I told them they can disable syslog if they want to. They did not ask about journald so I didn’t answer about journald.

systemctl disable --now systemd-journaldSet
Storage=volatilein/etc/systemd/journald.confLike how you cropped my message to make it seem like I was implying you couldn’t disable logging on systemd
Then what’s the meaning of this whole part?

Fair enough. I misunderstood, my bad.
Mounting /var/log in RAM just seems like more trouble than it’s worth.
