Default Rails logger does not output to STDOUT in development env

[morgoth]

When generating new Rails app (tested with main branch) the deafult Rails logger in development env looks like this:

dupa(dev)> Rails.logger
=> 
#<ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger:0x00007cad6f8fa608
 @broadcasts=
  [#<ActiveSupport::Logger:0x00007cad6f90da78
    @default_formatter=#<Logger::Formatter:0x00007cad6f8fc9a8 @datetime_format=nil>,
    @formatter=#<ActiveSupport::Logger::SimpleFormatter:0x00007cad6f8fa9c8 @datetime_format=nil>,
    @level=0,
    @level_override={},
    @local_level_key=:logger_thread_safe_level_14520,
    @logdev=
     #<Logger::LogDevice:0x00007cad6f90e748
      @binmode=false,
      @dev=#<File:/home/wojtek/Projects/dupa/log/development.log>,
      @filename="/home/wojtek/Projects/dupa/log/development.log",
      @mon_data=#<Monitor:0x00007cad6f8fc8b8>,
      @mon_data_owner_object_id=4560,
      @shift_age=1,
      @shift_period_suffix="%Y%m%d",
      @shift_size=104857600>,
    @progname=nil>,
   #<ActiveSupport::Logger:0x00007cad6f8506a8
    @default_formatter=#<Logger::Formatter:0x00007cad6f1e4800 @datetime_format=nil>,
    @formatter=#<ActiveSupport::Logger::SimpleFormatter:0x00007cad6f1e4698 @datetime_format=nil>,
    @level=0,
    @level_override={},
    @logdev=
     #<Logger::LogDevice:0x00007cad6f850658
      @binmode=false,
      @dev=#<IO:<STDERR>>,
      @filename=nil,
      @mon_data=#<Monitor:0x00007cad6f1e4760>,
      @mon_data_owner_object_id=14500,
      @shift_age=nil,
      @shift_period_suffix=nil,
      @shift_size=nil>,

When running SQ via bundle exec rake solid_queue:start there is nothing printed on the terminal.
SQ logs are only put into the log/development.log file.

I can workaround the issue by specifying logger by hand in environments/development.rb:
config.logger = ActiveSupport::Logger.new(STDOUT)

Not sure if this is some issue with Rails or Rails defaults or SQ, but running SQ on fresh new Rails app might be confusing due to no terminal log-feedback when launched.

Hey @morgoth, yes, this is intended, but I'm going to revamp how Solid Queue is used in development, so it runs alongside the rails app process, just like the async adapter, so it shouldn't be confusing for people because they won't need to launch it manually in development.

Thanks for explanation, closing then.
