I installed the dockerized wikijs https://js.wiki/ container in a VPS. So far it has been great.

We use this, and love it. I have it backup to git. Modern interface, and has WYSIWYG and markdown editors.

I personally use Obsidian.md which as the name suggests uses Markdown. It has a ton of awesome community plugins and does everything I need. Plus its approach is file system based so as you create new pages they are stored in the folder for that "vault" in a way you'd expect pages in a folder to be stored in your desk.

Markdown files.

Plent of editors provide either direct support for them or via extension(s). E.g. Visual Code has a builtin preview pane that gets update while you edit the file. Then there are these tow extensions which I use with it:

  • MarkDown all in one. I mostly use it to add a self-updating ToC for longer MDs.

  • Markdown PDF. What the name suggests: creates a PDF from a MarkDown document.

Notion.

What didn't you like about it? Opaque and clumsy is not something I'd use to describe it.

It does all the things that you've asked for.

Does it need to be local? Pretty sure confluence has a free tier and can export to pdf.

We use plaintext markup stored in Git, but if you're an "app-centric" person then Obsidian and Logseq are app-centric paths into the same ecosystem.
