Coda and Confluence are very heavy weight and slow. Also, it's a pain to create pages when you need to tab back and forth to copy text and pictures. Any other solutions in the market that do a better job?
I have never used wiki software before. But, some HN users recommend to use Zim [0]. They shared their experience with Zim on this thread [1]. One of the example is here [2]. Hopefully, it can be a reference for you.<p>> Confluence are very heavy weight and slow.

I use WikidPad for my notes... it was cross-platform until something broke in Python or wxPython, and now it doesn't work under Linux any more... I had to switch back to Windows 10 because of that.
I don't know if it is a wiki proper, it's more of a note-taking app I suppose.<p>I use Joplin. It can be encrypted end-to-end, and it can sync with my for shopping lists and what have you.
I use Obsidian to keep wikis in Markdown format. I can also edit the wikis in any other editor I choose since they're plain text files on my file system.
