Against my better judgment, I let my staff start using Basecamp about 7 years ago, and now, for reasons, I would prefer to just be self-hosting everything like we should have done from the start. Do you have experience making the transition from Basecamp to something open source and self-hosted?

To be clear, what we use Basecamp for is task management, document editing and file storage, and that’s about it. I gather that Basecamp is buzzword-compatible with all kind of other business-brain crap that we have never used, but I don’t know what “Gantt” or “Scrum” mean and don’t care to.

I think what we need is just a bug tracker and a wiki, whose UI isn’t terrible, and that also works well on mobile.

Suggestions?

Things that should not need to be said but do:

Do not suggest software that you do not use.Do not just Google it for me.
