It is possible to cluebat systemd to "rotate" logs, IIRC, and even
preserve systemd logs across reboots. I'd have to check our server at
the office for additional information but in the mean time, have "fun"
reading the systemd manual pages fan-out.

As for JSON logs, are you using journalctl to look at them? IIRC, that
displays things in (almost) regular syslog format.

Debian released 10.8 last Saturday.

Hope this helps,
