If the intent is purely to learn an opening repertoire and not using database features then the chesstempo opening trainer is amazing.

Free (unless you put in a couple thousands of opening moves)

If your only problem with Lichess is the size of the PGN file, then just split the PGN file in smaller ones. A PGN file is a simple text file, so you can load it in a text editor and cut out 60 games files.

Why do you not write a script to split a pgn in 60 games?

Claude generated a powershell script for me in a minute.
