We need glorified (rip)grep instead of ELKS and friends, which have huge learning curve. I welcome this effort.

I'm pretty satisfied with Loki. It just ingests the logs and offers a powerful query language to extract data at query time (e.g. parse JSON, run regexes, plot). It can store data in a local folder or S3-compatible storage. I also gave up on configuring ELK in the past...
VictoriaLogs is similar, but a nice improvement over Loki
I moved from an ELK stack to Loki and it's sooooo much easier/better/just-works.
yep, loki is basically "distributed grep"
