I feel you. The problem with a lot of Elastic style document search engines is that they don’t ever let you search by very explicit terms because of how the index is built. I believe the pros outweigh the cons but I often wish I could “drop into” grep, less, and others from within the log aggregation tool.
One log file, or all, I want grep or awk, maybe with find in front, possibly throw some jq on top if something is logging big json blobs.
That’s a lot slower at scale than something like Loki.
