Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

A dirty linux admin here. Imagine you get ssh'd in nginx log folder and all you want to know are all the ips that have been beating againts certain URL in around last let's say last seven days and getting
429most frequent first. In kittie script its likefind -mtime -7 -name "*access*" -exec zgrep $some_damed_url {} \; | grep 429 | awk '{print $3}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -r | lessdepends on how y'r logs look (and I assume you've been managing them - that's where thezgrepcomes from) should be run intmuxand could (should?) be written better 'n all - but my point is - do that for me in gui(I'm waiting ⏲)
As a general rule, I will have most of my app and system logs sent to a central log aggregation server. Splunk, log entries, even cloudwatch can do this now.
But you are right, if there is an archaic server that you need to analyse logs from, nothing beats a find/grep/sed
