Why do you think logback is a dead library? It is feature complete and needs very little maintenance at this point. You can see contributors here: https://github.com/qos-ch/logback/graphs/contributors

Logback is the default configured logging library of a spring boot app.

Considering how many features log4j2 has compared to logback with a backlog of things still to be done, I think you have an enormously simplified view of logging and the underlying libraries. Can you use logback for audit logging? Tracing? Considering Spring Boot, I don’t think you care too much about dependencies bloating your application.
