> Have you considered instead writing a plugin for Mediawiki that accomplishes 90% of what you want for 1% of the effort?

My current take: no matter how you slice it, the above comment strikes me as a leading question that is way off target. Tell me if I'm wrong.

1. MediaWiki plugins? Never heard of them. Do you mean MediaWiki extensions? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Extensions

2. Are you suggesting that MediaWiki is relatively close to Confluence or Notion? In some way? What way?

I predict that the development effort required to adapt MediaWiki to a Notion-type product would be at least hundreds of thousands of dollars. To put it bluntly: foolish and a waste of money. Am I missing something? Tell me.

To better explain my point of view: Notion is a single-page application built (probably) with JavaScript or TypeScript. MediaWiki is rooted in a server-side, old-school web application style. It perhaps may have evolved some, but it has relatively little JS in comparison.

P.S. I realize this comment sounds grumpy. I suppose I find it rather silly and maybe even presumptive to read a comment like the one above. It is a leading question suggesting an incredible (as in unbelievable) claim. It suggests that Docmost is somehow missing a path forward requiring only 1% of the effort. Ok, that sounds appealing. If true. But its suggestion is just bonkers... MediaWiki as a jumping off point?. WAT? I have no relationship to Docmost, but I consider myself a bit protective of open-source developers, especially for a useful product with good potential. I recommend they tune out these kinds of comments for their sanity.
