It isn't horrible. I have it running in a docker-compose stack and after initial setup I haven't really thought about it other than checking the Raindrop script I have is still populating it.

I don't really use it interactively, it's more to have a "backup" of websites I find useful after finding some I used to reference for years disappeared and were never added to archive.org or occasionally sending the Readability/PDF versions to my Kindle.

I also setup YaCY[1] at one point with the idea of having my own local personal search engine for the archived sites, but I ended up never using it.

Similar story, getting ArchiveBox setup and running was a breeze, but everything after that was kinda rough. For one, ArchiveBox doesn't have a proper API, so I had to rig one up with Puppeteer. And then there's YaCY. On paper, it seemed like the dream tool for indexing and making a searchable bookmark collection. But in reality, it was a whole lot of work followed by a whole lot of disappointment.
