Hi,

filing this as a bug report, again, because the problem has become worse
than when #1031628 was filed and since snapshot.d.o is part of the central
services Debian provides and it should work better than it does right now.
else, why do we operate it? ;)

On https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian-ports/?year=2023&month=8 I count
31 snapshot for those 29 days of August so far, with no snapshots so far for
2023-08-01, 2023-08-08, 2023-08-17 and 2023-08-29.

But it get's worse:


Please don't just close this bug report as it was done with #1031628,
it's useful to be able to track this, point out that this problem
has been existed since some time and have a place to discussion
workarounds.

Also, how can one start helping with this issue (or others)? where does
the snapshot team communicate?

https://salsa.debian.org/snapshot-team/snapshot/-/commits/master has
not seen any commit since 7 months.
