In search of a personal wiki program

I'm currently stuck between using Quartz - a program that takes markdown files in a certain directory and hosts them on a local server for you to view, and wiki.vim (which is based off Vimwiki). I absolutely refuse to use GUI programs like Obsidian, Logseq (which I have used for 3 months before), Anytype, etc..
Any suggestions, kiwis?

Is there something in particular that you don't like about your current setup which is causing you to ask for advice?

Are you sure you're not just optimising the way you work at the expense of actually working?

I want to write my notes in Vim, and GUI apps can't do that, they may have some half-assed attempt to make vim-like bindings, but they're ineffective.
GUI apps are also way slower than CLI apps.
 
Maybe these would help?

MkDocs

I know these are generic options that you'd get on the internet but these are the two that I have experienced with, personally MkDocs is cool since they don't use those retarded SPA website sort of gist, thus you can just use basic filesystem to open it up (I usually do these to make reports just to make it seem cool for people), but styling wise both of'em are infuriating if you're into those.
 
TiddlyWiki is such a retarded kludge it's funny. I've a few hundred pages written in it that I'm yet to extricate.

I recommend text files + grep, and some kind of backup system with 2 copies on 2 media in your house. Cloud and offsite can wait, 1N -> 2N is the hard part.
