It's funny - I actually went through a similar transition and also realized it was a little too heavy-duty for my personal workflow.

At this point I'm using Linkding (self-hosted bookmarks, which has an archive function) paired with Singlefile (which integrates with Linkding) which locally captures and uploads. For larger, or multi-page, captures I still fire off an Archivebox command. I run into blocks occasionally, but it also just feels like the open web is becoming less and less open in general.

I second this workflow, exactly what I switched to from Archivebox. Linkding has a built-in "create HTML snapshot" feature but the Singlefile browser extension works much better.

Have you tried ArchiveBox since v0.9 was released? v0.9 was basically a complete rewrite with a new archiving engine, and it ships with ArchiveWebPage built-in as one of its plugins now.

As of the latest v0.9.77 it's now tested to be able to handle 2 million snapshots / 2TB on a 4CPU server, archiving @ 1 URL/min consistently while serving all the web UIs @ ~100ms.
