I saw a mention of Wiki.js today and I looked at the landscape of wiki software. There’s plenty to choose from. What do you host?

Update

Thanks for all the opinions. I tried both Wiki.js and DokuWiki and I found that both can save data as .md files. I think I’ll go with Wiki.js for now.

    Currently using Silverbullet ( https://silverbullet.md ).

    I like that it has offline mode and everything is in .md files, and it is a combined edit and view mode. The home page us editable, but doesn’t sync back - if you want to test it

    It has a pretty powerful query function, to autogenerate lists of tasks or files

      I use Silverbullet too and have set the same directory as my vimwiki path, so I can edit my files in the terminal if I want, but also in the browser. Never had issues with it.

    I used Linuxserver’s Docker container of Dokuwiki when I migrated my notes from Evernote a few years ago. It was easy to setup and configure, has a number of plugins that further improve it, and it did the job really well.

    I ended up migrating it all to Obsidian this year, as it serves my needs better, but otherwise I’d still be using Dokuwiki.

    I run several instances of mediawiki. Sometimes I curse the programmers for being jockeys (next to no usable documentation, every update breaks something), but at the end of the day it’s easy and works.

    I’m using Bookstack for myself as well as for work and I love it. It may not have all the features some of the others mentioned here do but there is beauty in its simplicity. It gets out of my way but still has a few power user features.

    I use gitit from the Debian repositories. It’s a simple server application without a database and it uses git and pandoc. I just run gitit -f somewiki.conf and access it in the browser. As formatting you can use what pandoc supports, but I’ve chosen reStructuredText. DokuWiki mentioned by others in the thread is also a good option.

    I run Outline. Originally I was looking for a drop in Notion replacement, but it isn’t quite there yet.

    I still run it because the stack was a bear to deploy, so I wanna get some use out of the product (Redis, Outline itself, Postgres, and MinIO or AWS). It is a good product, it’s just lacking some features that I use in Notion
