Examples with Github Pages?
I was thinking about using MkDocs, its usually used for documentation but I don't see why it couldn't be used for a normal wiki aswell. Since It's markdown you can just customize it like if it were a wiki, and a wiki doesn't really need backend stuff so I don't see a problem with it

What do you do with outdated/depreciated/unsupported FOSS stuff?
snippet-box is a program that I run on docker to hold small bits of code. It's no longer being updated, but... It doesn't really need to be. o_o All I'm asking of it to do is hold what essentially boils down to .txt files. Therefore, it not being updated anymore doesn't really affect me at all, so I've stuck with it
