Log all journald messages to AWS Cloudwatch

I'm migrating our existing Amazon Linux 2 servers to Amazon Linux 2023. One of the changes is that the AL2023 now uses journald for it's logging. I have the requirement to have all logging in AWS Cloudwatch. I've already enabled the normal cloudwatch agent for metrics and a few logfiles. This is working as expected. For journald I've checked various options and decided to implement [journald-cloudwatch-logs](https://github.com/saymedia/journald-cloudwatch-logs) , as it looked the most promising. I've configured it but I have a problem: * The service starts successful, but I simply do not see any logging in cloudwatch. This is the config:

aws_region = "eu-central-1"
ec2_instance_id = "i-xxxxxxxxxx"
log_group = "LogGroup"
log_stream = "server01-systemctl"
state_file = "/var/lib/journald-cloudwatch-logs/state"
log_priority = "INFO"

I've checked journalctl but no errors or any other indication something is wrong. Also, because the normal cloudwatch agent logs successfully to another log stream I know the IAM permissions are fine. My questions: * How can I make journald-cloudwatch-logs to actually log to cloudwatch? Any help is greatly appreciated. Edit: I'm also open for other approached to log journald messages to cloudwatch
