You shouldn't need to do that if you're running systemd. Everything is written to the journal. Just do journalctl --since=today and you'll get everything since midnight. You really don't need the text logs at all.

You can spend hours trawling through logs, but mostly I'd search in
/var/log/(daemon.log|debug|kern.log|messages|syslog) - not necessarily
in that order.

A trick I've learned is to issue "ls -lt /var/log | head -20". This will list the 20 log files most recently written to. Alas, it doesn't find journald stuff, and it doesn't look in subdirectories, so you need to do that separately.
