I think this is a chance for me to go somehow off topic and ask people how they handle combining the monitoring of different logs one place. I think there are many solutions but must of them gear toward enterprise solutions. What do people use for poor's man (personal usage like selfhosting/homelab) approach. That does not require you to be VC funded or takes a lot of time to actually implement.

I like the Grafana stack so far, it seems more lightweight and suitable for homelab scale than something like Elastic. Grafana/alloy remote_write functionality to push logs from all machine/vm/node/pod to a central grafana/loki and metrics to prometheus. Optionally visualize both in a grafana dashboard.
