Given recent update and merges, could you push a new pypi version?
Even if it's marked as beta, it would be useful to collect feedback

Closing this for now as I'm doing a github issue cleanup pass, trust that I'm well aware of the pressure to roll a new PyPI release 💜

The main blocker for pypi is the difficult django version upgrade here: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/988 (which may take months still)

Subscribe to that issue for more granular updates for now

I am working through a backlog of issues that need to be fixed before I am ready to roll the next "stable" release. I understand this is annoying for users accustomed to the much more rapid monthly release cycle of other homelab apps like Plex, Nextcloud, etc. (as I would be too!).

Because there are a bunch of slow-moving orgs that depend on the bare-metal (pypi/brew/pkg) ArchiveBox releases being non-breaking, I would rather direct users expecting faster bugfixes to the Docker archivebox/archivebox:dev image (until I am ready to roll a new stable release). The bare-metal users are able to upgrade the core & their extractor dependencies independently, and the Docker users are able to use :dev which bundles the most recent dependencies, so most users have a reasonably accessible solution to running up-to-date ArchiveBox if they need it urgently.

I'm still just a solo dev on this project, my time budget for ArchiveBox has been 1~2 days a month for the last 1.5yr, limiting me to mostly answering support requests, improving docs, reviewing PRs, and pushing security fixes. The most recent release delay is partly a function of me accepting too many feature requests (increasing the surface area that I have to bugfix), and partly a function of ArchiveBox's core design philosophy which depends on a lot of external extractor tools that change often.

I have started to devote more dedicated energy to ArchiveBox in the last month again, but it will take me some time to ramp up and work through the backlog and prepare a new stable Docker release.

In the meantime please check out the most recently updated Github Issues / Discussions, and @ArchiveBoxApp Twitter for updates.
