I've inherited enough SharePoint and Confluence sites in my time that now simplicity is my co-pilot when it comes to these sites. It's no wonder that both products cause end users to have emotional baggage because of them.

There's also the dreaded deliberate complexity to create an artificial dependency to people that always gets me.

As I always tell folks, "Don't give readers an excuse to not to read your document. There are no awards for deliberate complexity."

Yeah, nobody will find your docs 5 folders down in the sub-basement of your SharePoint site especially if the site search tool isn’t well maintained.
