That works for small or low traffic communities but any community with a lot of traffic is going to be charged $1000's each year for hosting. I've done this with WordPress and it's expensive and/or a huge time commitment that sucks your life away. I want to edit wikis not manage servers and moving to another "free" service has many of the same or different problems. I know how this one works and I've seen other wikis fork and either fail miserably or split the community which doesn't do anything to keep the wiki alive. You can do what you want but I'm going to stick it out and see what happens.
