- Question on importing from MD files?

Migrate from MediaWiki
Not really specific tools for that purpose, but our api-scripts repo has a collection of examples that use the API, which could be used as a basis for building something more specific. Within the readme there is also a variety of more extensive community project, some of which may also be useful here.

Move to BookStack from WikiJS?
If you wanted accessible non-DB copies of your content, this is possible via a couple of options. Some users script exports of all their books. I have an example of this here in our API script examples repo. Alternatively you could write out raw content to plain files on the system via hooking into events using our logical theme system. I have an basic example of doing this for HTML format content within this blog post.

Any self-hosted alternative to Confluence for wikis that comes anywhere close?
Can't give too much advice in regards to Confluence, but in regards to BookStack import the REST API is probably the best best. API docs can be seen on our demo instance here. API usage examples, and community projects/scripts, can be found here if it helps. You might be able to find existing confluence to bookstack scripts. Came across this in a search but not sure how feature complete or up-to-date it is.

My Open-Source toolkit for 2024
Outline is another open-source tool I’ve been using lately for note-taking and knowledgebase purposes. Previously, my app of choice for this was Bear.app. It worked out well for markdown notes, but I needed something more like a wiki to organize content. I discovered Outline in late 2022 and found it to be a snappy experience and just what I needed: nestable collections, markdown, and a decent search experience. Outline delivers that and more. It also offers real-time collaborative editing like Google Docs and public shares for either a single page or for all nested pages of a share.

Outline: Self hostable, realtime, Markdown compatible knowledge base
Just be careful that while it is self-hostable and the source is available, it is not open source [1,2]. If this is something important for your consideration before using it.
