Disable Console Output in Logstash 7.10
What log level are you set to in logstash.yml? The default log level is "info" which is pretty chatty. I set mine to "error". See https://github.com/elastic/logstash/blob/master/config/logstash.yml#L248.

Simple way to centralize my server logs?
Honestly graylog/loki is only worth it if you want to have automatic processing/stats generation/graphing and complex log management rules. If you just want to read logs in a web interface I suggest either frontail (very basic, a bit too much for my taste) or lnav (I use this 99% of the time, over SSH) + gotty to access a terminal/lnav from a web browser - be careful to secure it properly as it basically gives shell access to your server.
