  • Node version: v8.10.0
  • Browser version: n/a
  • Device, operating system: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
  • The Lounge version: 3.0.1-1

I've recently noticed that something was filling up my server's disk and it led me to thelounge's logs which are stored in /etc. This was unexpected -- I think those should be going to /var instead -- and it interacts very badly with etckeeper, which was doing daily git commits snapshooting /etc. This is particularly undesirable because thelounge's logs contain binary sqlite3 files, which causes the git repository to grow very quickly.

Please consider moving the logs to /var/log. Thanks!
