Honestly, for anyone wanting this as a documentation/wiki, I think Documize is likely a more mature and collaborative solution:
Appflowy is definitely more replicating Notion, and Documize is taking on Confluence.
What do we use? EspoCRM Knowledgebase! For me, the question with every other app now is always going to be: can we just do this in Espo? In every case so far, the answer has been yes.

The question from across the fence is - How?

@marcusquinn Perhaps you can offer up a few examples and or templates in another topic?

0.2.2 is out today. Seems like they are making great progress with lots of regular releases:
-
@LoudLemur It can be. Nextcloud Text is very good, and there's now a Tables Add On.
Documize might be the closest we have, otherwise.
Honestly, I stay away from Notion, as it's a data trap.

They seem to have moved ahead by leaps and bound, after all it's been almost 2 years since the OP.
New release a few days ago, and we can see there's 3–4 updates per month for a while.
https://appflowy.io/whatsnewThey've even added an AI module on March 23.
“️ v0.1.1 brings the power of OpenAI into your AppFlowy pages. Ask AI to write anything for you in AppFlowy. Learn more about AppFlowy + OpenAI.
️”
What else, “Dockerized”? Yes, it is!
Their roadmap seems to be on fire.

I've just added an update to the previous Notion thread here. -
Lots of votes for AppFlowy. Reminder that in the meantime the self-hosted peer-to-peer app, Anytype is a credible option in this area now:

I've personally installed and tested, relatively thoroughly, BOTH apps now. They're both very good, even excellent. Now, this is the only way to find out and then cast a real vote
The real fact is that, actually AppFlowy 'looks' pretty good, and it is pretty good, and, well, much promising. But compared to Anytype in terms of advancement in development, AppFlowy is still babbling.
Anytype is much more mature and works very well, on Android, Linux, and Windows. It has much ready to use templates and object types, and even a certain workflow is already built and pretty cool and very easy and intuitive to use. Everything is typically hosted on your devices, but encrypted and all synchronized in real-time, however VIA IPFS (interplanetary file system). Now that last part is the less appealing one, imho, in the context of using it on or with Cloudron. Unless we start running IPFS on Cloudron
... afaics that carries a very low risk to happen...
though the app itself is very appealing especially on mobile.
In the case of AppFlowy, as I said it is VERY promising and works very well also for the actual stage where it is in development, but, as I said, it is yet still pretty much basic in matter of templates, object types, and we have yet to have functions allowing to develop, at least, a decent basic workflow. For now, you cannot even relate notes and objects to one another. On the other hand that last one is blazing much faster than Anytype and runs on DOCKER, which is very likely it gets more vote for now.
That said, meanwhile I believe we still have I'd say pretty good alternatives, if we can say so, on our Cloudron, depending, for example Trilium and Directus. Now, there's this relatively new app, LeanTime, that we have on Cloudron, that I've started to test which has a very interesting approach in terms of working with data with a TEAM.
