Describe the feature you'd like to see

Hello, thank you for making Jotty. It's a great piece of software that helped me get off of Google Keep, and I don't believe there's anything else with its feature set out there currently.

Following up on what was hinted at in #206, would it be possible to add a journald logging facility?

I use rootless Podman containers instead of Docker. The default logging driver for Podman containers is journald. It took me some time to realise why podman logs jotty was not outputting anything, and for a couple of days I just thought Jotty did not have logging features, until stumbling on the aforementioned issue.
In general, in my opinion, it is a good thing for any self-hosted application to have logging capabilities that integrate better into a typical server stack, e.g., journald or syslog, providing the server administrator a unified interface for maintenance.

Thank you for your time, and for considering the feature request. In case the feature request is not planned, I'd like to request permission to PR a small paragraph to the HOWTOs discussing the need to change log driver to json-file for any Podman users trying out Jotty.
