So I recently got into Docker and spun up a self hosted wiki.js container to house personal documentation and another for lore/world building info for a TTRPG game I run. Was using wiki.js a mistake? It was super easy to setup, but looking at the GitHub the project seems dead. If the next major version ever does come out it looks like it'll be a total rewrite AND a database change. I don't want to populate them with content just to have it get all fucked up down the line, or get jammed up by an unlatched security vulnerability. Should I switch to another wiki software? If so, any recommendations?

Yes
No, development is just glacial
Fuck You!

It looks like I can export to markdown files.

I ended up installing xwiki. It's big and kinda slow but it works just fine. I think I'll use it going forward. I might keep my wiki.js container going for my personal documentation, or I might just set up obsidian sync. I'm not too picky where my documentation lives.
