You should use an init system like systemd or supervisord to start it. Another alternative is to use a terminal session manager like tmux or screen. As a last resort, if you really must background it (which I don't recommend as it's generally harder to manage long-term), you can use nohup archivebox ... &.

I ran into 1 more problem, the app will consume all available RAM (6 GB) and slow down to 1-2 links per hour. basically all the memory is occupied by chromium instances. Is it possible to solve this somehow ?
