The systemd journal has taken the place of log files though it will happily run in parallel with the standard type log files. These are still created & maintained by default in Arch & Manjaro, which means that even if you delete syslog-ng & all of the /var/log/*log files on reboot you will find the log files have been automatically created again, this will change in the future.
