A reverse proxy is configured to connect to those ports depending on the subdomain accessed. The data of all wikis lives in a folder that is shared using Syncthing.

I want to be sure before breaking my current setup, so i still wait for it to become more mature.",
"what could we do better? prompts for thinking: could you imagine yourself leaving tiddlywiki? is there something you are afraid of in the future of tiddlywiki? what could change your relationship with tw and its community? what might encourage you to contribute more to the project?": "I hope Tiddlywiki doesn't become too \"heavy\". The possibilities with filters/procedures/macros/widgets are surely great, but very overwhelming and sometimes quite frustrating, even with experience. Simple and powerful at the same time might be impossible. In some cases, maybe you should go with simple rather than powerful.\n\nI'd like the sidebar to look like a part of the application, visually.\n\nI fear that Jeremy could quit and development stops.\n\nI can't see myself stop using TW anyway.",

The standard font sizes are a good indicator of that, especially on tabs. I think this change must come from the project itself.\n\nThe website should have its structure reconsidered and probably show less info upfront. We need new users.\n\nI'm wary of a gradual split in the ecosystem (core+plugin devs) between single-file and Node.\n\nThe standard distribution should be more featureful e.g. by shipping some plugins along w/ the core, which means supporting them too.",

"putting it all together, what value does tiddlywiki provide for you in your day to day work, or in your life?": "As a dyslexic/neurodiverse person it has been ESSENTIAL for me because of the way information can be recorded in small bits (tiddlys) and be connected in an interrelated (neuro) network is really helpful because my brain can't retrieve or order information in neurotypical ways. ",

I love the way the community responds and helps each other out. I like its DIY nature and that it is like a maker space. I am excited that TiddlyWiki could become what the world needs in a future of commercialised AI domination. Tiddlywiki is more than about providing tech solutions or innovation. It is about that of course but about doing that through journeying together.",
"what could we do better? prompts for thinking: could you imagine yourself leaving tiddlywiki? is there something you are afraid of in the future of tiddlywiki? what could change your relationship with tw and its community? what might encourage you to contribute more to the project?": "Yes, if Tiddlywiki every commercialised and became like Notion or Evernote, I will leave. I am dyslexic, can't code, so I can't participate in the TW community. Most of what is written in the help for discussion forums I don't understand. Not only the technical stuff, but even the very basic stuff, e.g., I don't even know what a plugin is. If there is a some really BASIC training tutorials (like for an 8 year old) to help me understand the jargon/language, this would enable me to contribute.",

I have about 8 modified core widgets and 10 modified core templates.\nHowever, I mostly use my own templates, e.g. a single-tiddler view, completely reworked sidebar (with information on the tiddler that is shown), and custom task management.",
"are you positive about the future prospects of tiddlywiki?": "Yes",
"are you confident that tiddlywiki will continue to meet your needs with future development?": "Yes",
"are you satisfied with the way the project makes decisions?": "No",
"what are we doing well? prompts for thinking: what are the aspects of tiddlywiki as a project and community that you find appealing? is there anything you are excited for in the future of tiddlywiki?": "The reference at tiddlywiki.com is extremely valuable and still being used as such after many years of programming. This relates mostly to the descriptions of the various elements such as filter operators and widgets, no so much the concepts.\nThe community at TW Talk can be very enlightening. There are some contributors (mostly the core programmers and Eric) whose posts I will read for every topic that I'm interested in. There are a few who mostly contribute noise that I tend to skip.",
"what could we do better? prompts for thinking: could you imagine yourself leaving tiddlywiki? is there something you are afraid of in the future of tiddlywiki? what could change your relationship with tw and its community? what might encourage you to contribute more to the project?": "Decisions are dominated by one person or others' interpretation of that person's wishes. PRs often seem to fizzle out because a small group of people dominate PR discussions with their opinions on what should be done and what not. Making PRs is a lot of work and being declared \"plugin-material\" too late in the process is frustrating.\nI would generally like to see a tighter Markdown integration and maybe even a preference towards Markdown for newly-created wikis to help new users.",
"with your consent, we would like to publish responses to this survey on tiddlywiki.com, in the spirit of open development. are you happy for your responses to be available online? we will not include information on your age or country of birth in the public results. those items of information will be kept strictly to a small and trusted group of regular contributors and administrators.": "Yes, I am happy for my responses to be published",
