#12Can highly recommend outline (https://www.getoutline.com/). You can self-host or opt for the hosted version. Built and maintained by one of the linear devs.

#13I cannot recall why i did not go for wiki.js myself, I tried, but I kept looking. Ended up with https://docmost.com/ and I've been quite happy. It's probably more equal to Notion then Wikipedia, but as a internal knowledge base it seem to be hit the right spot in terms simplicity and features.
Authentication options are very limited with docmost, compared to other offerings. There is only one. Locally stored credentials.

#15Especially for small startups, https://typemill.net can be a handy solution, since it is very lightweight and can also produce handbooks in PDF format.

#16Why not use Wikipedia's software? Is it too cumbersome?

#17Why not just use Google Drive or Office 365? You probably have one of them anyway, people know how to use it, and all the access control features are built in. Plus you can easily export all your docs and just put them on an ftp server in the worst case.

#19+1 for wiki.js, I have it and Gogs (git server) running on my Arch VM. Very lightweight services, and setup was a breeze for both.

MediaWiki on a VPS is comfy. Installation is easy. Plus you get to make the original wiki skin the default for the authentic wiki experience.
