Atlassian is moving its Confluence away from smaller self-hosted servers into the cloud. Leaving the customers that for some reason do not want to move their documentation into the cloud or take the self-hosted datacenter Confluence route.
Reason I liked Confluence was for its WUSIWUG editor, Wikis have a tendency to be a bit difficult to use. e.g. pasting images was a nice feature of Confluence, in addition to pasting all type of rich content (pdfs, draw.io, mindmap and so on), easily making web-grids / columns to organize the content, templates for new articles, and all the other nice features of Confluence.
I am left with the question of what to do next, since we don't want to move our documentation into the cloud and self-hosted DC Confluence is a bit too expensive.
Do you guys know of any good self-hosted easy to use alternatives to Confluence?
Edit: I can also clarify that it is the onenote feel of Confluence that I also liked. I felt Confluence used to be a perfect match between "OneNote"-ness, and "Wiki"-ness. The domain to our installation is "note.domain.net", because you can go in there and make a "note of things", which can become good documentation given time.
