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.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

What wiki? (lemmy.ca)

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.

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.

When i figure out how to hide ip addresses from logged out users and how to implement the short url so it doesnt show index.php on my url ill finally be able to finish launching my wiki on mediawiki.

But yeah like you said there’s barely documentation and its really hard to get a reply on the support page
