The journal can drown you in Wi‑Fi disconnect chatter
Ever notice your laptop or Raspberry Pi stuck in a loop of “connected” / “disconnected” messages? The kernel, NetworkManager, wpa_supplicant – they all go on about it. On a busy box the journal gets clogged with the same line over and over, and your console turns into a flood of warnings that look like fresh problems every few seconds. If you’re a homelab operator, a self‑hoster, or just a sysadmin who likes a tidy log, you’ll want a clean way to silence the noise without losing the diagnostics that help you spot real outages.
