I set it to debug at somepoint and forgot maybe? Idk, but why the heck does the default config of the official Docker is to keep all logs, forever, in a single file woth no rotation?

Feels like 101 of log files. Anyway, this explains why my storage recipt grew slowly but unexpectedly.

This is a docker! If your docker is marketed as ready to go and all-in-one, it should have basic things like that.

If I were running this as a full system with a user base then of course I would go over everything and make sure it all makes sebse for my needs. But since my needs were just a running nc instance, it would make sense to run a simple docker with mostly default config. If your docker by default has terrible config, then you are missing the point a bit.

Containers don't do log rotation by default and the container itself has no say in the matter. You have to configure it in your container runtime config.

Dockers images are often incoherent and just different from one a other so much that you should never give something as expected and doublecheck the basics.

Docker was never meant do deploy services, and I shows.

It's absolutely meant to deploy services, that's its entire purpose...
