Setting up DokuWiki for KyokoNet now, hugo was being a terrible headache to deal with
@akoizumi@social.kyoko-project.wer.ee DokuWiki is my strong vote, I believe the actual data format is just text files, which is quite nice.
@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net Mine is better 😆
@prologic@twtxt.net tbh, your wiki felt a little half-baked when I tried it. I actually had given up on it and was playing with someone’s fork of it where they were going to build it out a lot more… and then they also abandoned it, I think. But that was also a bit ago, I don’t know if you’ve done more since.
I will probably take another look after Todo or something, if you’re going to base your kinda core app experience for self-hosting on some of these, I should probably provide specific notes. :P
@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net To be honest I was actually joking. My wiki most definitely is half baked 😂 The thing is I’ve built very complex and elaborate wiki engines (wikis as we call them) back in the day, when PHP was still cool 😅 – This time however I didn’t really feel like building out a full-fledged wiki. Maybe I should? Would anyone use it? What would the minimum feature-set be? Would @darch@twtxt.net be interesting in doing up a nice SimpleCSS theme? I dunno 🤷♂️ OTOH I actually find HedgeDoc to be “not a bad little personal wiki” of sorts. It’s not really a wiki per se as I don’t do any “document linking” or such (I could I guess). But I tend to write a lot of personal, company and project docs there now… So 🤷♂️ Anyway, if anyone is actually interested in seeing more of these tiny little self-hosted aps grow, please either a) contribute or b) sponsor my on Github so I can pay other people to do the work for me 😅 (my time is already overloaded)
@prologic@twtxt.net Definitely didn’t pick up that you were joking… was slightly worried you might be offended by my honesty there! I am warming to HedgeDoc for some things, particularly meeting notes and blog drafting, but yeah, DokuWiki is what I use for my personal infrastructure docs. Network configs, manuals for obscure hardware, etc.
@ocdtrekkie@twtxt.net I guess what’s happened to me over the years is I’ve “outgrown” wikis. I generally find them to basically be “dumping grounds” and a poor tool. Maybe that explains a few things…
I feel like wikis push me to hierarchical organization. My replacement is far messier: I open random Sandstorm documents, leave some notes, and hope I’ll remember enough of what I named it to search for it. :D
