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?
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.
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

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.
Reminds me of Obsidian, which is what I use for notes. But obsidian isn’t selfhosted. I might actually host a copy of that because it’s cool
