What Hacker News says
5 sourcesI'm also interested in people's suggestions. I think the most popular choice is Confluence, which I don't like at all. The second most popular choice is probably Notion, which unfortunately is a bit too slow to consider great.
Two options I want to try are:
* Documize https://github.com/documize/community
* Nuclino https://www.nuclino.com/
In Ask HN: Preferred Internal Wiki Platform?Been working on Documize[0] for a while now and we get plenty of Confluence people moving over.

It's built with Go and EmberJS.
* Designed for tech and non-technical user alike
* Cloud or self-host (single binary deployment)
* Open source core
* Markdown, WYSIWYG with open sourced "connectors"
* Built-in approval and versioning capabilities (no paid add-ons required)
* Secured for internal and external participants
* Opinionated content organization approach

For self-hosting try https://github.com/documize/community -- WYSIWYG or Markdown, integrate data from Trello, GitHub, or roll your own integration.
Still early days yet, but you should get a feel for docs/wiki/SaaS data embedding.
