I don't think that Mailman 3 gives the choice of the UI for archives.

Technically, it does.

Mailman 3 has a pluggable architecture and supports multiple archives enabled site-wide and opt-in by individual lists. HyperKitty is the default archiver, and the one we promote, but it doesn’t have to be the only archiver enabled. In fact, we come with plugins for mail-archive.com and MHonarc. It might even be possible to enable a standalone Pipermail and route messages to that if one were so inclined. The choice of archivers is not mutually exclusive.

Practically speaking though, there just aren’t a ton of well maintained FLOSS archivers to choose from. HyperKitty is well maintained. Frankly speaking, Pipermail is not.
