What are you replacing Scrapbook (for Firefox) with in Google Chrome?

Who does not know: for Firefox there is such an application - Scrapbook , for completely_and_completely saving web pages with all their content, scripts (almost always), flash drives and other things. Everything is organized in a tree, everything is saved as files to disk. Yes, it slows down a little (especially on a five-gigabyte scrapbook, apparently due to the fact that the “tree” is stored in XML and it would have to be parsed at startup, and there are a huge number of folders on the disk), but this always works for me it was creepy how comfortable.
But over time, it became simply impossible to use Firefox, so I switched to Chrome. And he met an ambush - there is nothing like it for him. At first, I even reached insanity: I liked something (in chrome), copy the link, open it in Fox, save it. Naturally, this quickly got boring.
The biggest cant of all applications for Chrome is that they store their database somewhere in the depths of the user profile, in a packed format. The last thing that finished me off in them was the lack of synchronization of their data and settings in this situation. Somehow an incident happened: I installed chrome on a netbook, it synchronized the profile with a laptop, I thought that some of the addon was not needed on a minibook - and deleted it, including a couple of “scrapbooks” with saved pages. I did not think that this operation is also synchronized. Re-installing them, unfortunately, did not return the data.
I am currently using Evernote. But that's not it either. I would like the original look of the pages + so that you can take such a web archive and transfer it to another computer (as it was and is with Fox's scrapbook).
Tell us what do you use?

Yeah, I haven't been able to find a replacement either. In particular, because of this, he canceled (until clear alternatives appeared) his move from Firefox to Google Chrome.
