So this is the new generation of Javascript self-hostable wikis inspired by Notion. I remember in the late 2000s, most were PHP-based, with Twiki being an exception: it was Perl-based and also had a powerful wiki/database combination [1]. But it was not intuitive to use. That's what Notion nailed a decade later.

Now All the new (OSS ?) Notion clones like Outline are still deficient in that second database aspect. I hope we are eventually getting there.

Give Trilium a shot (as to why, I commented elsewhere in this thread in response to someone mentioning it), it's not super flashy at first sight, but in my experience, it gets the database aspect right.
