@matpacker All I can say is, go public! I debated the same thing when I got started. I just checked on my private wiki: it has two tiddlers in it and was last edited on 1/17/2019. My public wiki, however, has mushroomed. If you decide to go with a hosted Node.js install, the best way I know of is to follow the great instructions @joshsullivan wrote up. I'm going to use those and move mine to its own domain (hopefully this weekend). Join us!!!
