I'm debating if I should continue using MediaWiki or go with Bookstack or go with Wiki.js once 2.0 is released.
If it is ever released. I like the product, but they move like molasses.
That’s why it’s difficult for me to leave mediawiki.

I use mediawiki at home for house issues and i like it. Have not tried the others though

Bookstack is pretty good but I preferred Mediawiki and Wiki.js layout.
I like wiki.js 1.x because it can be set up with a git repo for backups. But there are some major changes happening with Wiki.js 2.x and like @scottalanmiller has mention develop is pretty slow. -
@black3dynamite Ok cool. I just looked at bookstack and it looks interesting

I've fiddled with bookstack and am planning to use it going forward, but I haven't had anything to document just yet.
-
Setting up a beast of a desktop with dual xeon processors as a fedora workstation with KVM to run a Windows 10 VM should the person need it.
I hope they don't need it. . .

@dafyre I document everything at work but we have no recommended tool or process in place so I am free to use whatever I want. So I try different things. I have a huge OneNote compilation. Looking at something called Boostnote as well. For home I document things there too just like I would at work. I also add house issues, repairs, and anything I need to remember.
-
I still think WordPress is by far the easiest to set up and most supported thing you'll find to document and search on. The plugins make it all work so well.
-
Setting up yet another domain on Office 365 to receive/send email. I feel like a one-man-MSP.
-
The O365 Admin portal is slow AF today. And when verifying DNS records, it keeps alternating which ones it detects; it is never all of them. SMH
-
@obsolesce Yeah you can't argue with wordpress either. You can basically have the hosted version up and running in a few minutes. If you just use it for documentation and not a web site then you can't beat that for ease of use and accessing it everywhere.

I agree too. But for documentation, bookstack is so much smoother than making Wordpress into a wiki.

Yeah, it's great for that restricted single-use case if it fits your needs... nothing beats it, at least nothing I've yet found.

Its' a bit complex to use day to day, I find.

Yeah I think Grav with the admin interface is easier. No database and users can do basic bold, italic, etc through WYSIWYG. And Markdown for more advanced users.
Although we've been using ASCIIDoc a lot recently. But that's myself and another admin, no normal users.
-
@scottalanmiller It was complex at first but I like trying new things and eventually it got easier
-
@stacksofplates Have not tried grav, I will make a note to try it
