Hi! In the DEP-18 thread surprisingly many (e.g. Salvo, Johannes, Andrea, Gioele) complained about Salsa being slow to load, or having connectivity issues.
I am thus happy to note that the Salsa admins posted in https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/issues/395 a comment stating that salsa.debian.org is about to get a hardware update which should make it a tad snappier. Salsa recently gained a shared riscv64 runner so you can now test a new architecture in Salsa-CI, and based on https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/issues/266 and https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/issues/301 more shared runners on various architectures might be coming. Salvo and others also pointed out that "git push" occasionally failed. According to https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/issues/381 that issue should be fixed by now. I also remember seeing this earlier, but I have not experienced it a single time in at least two weeks. One remaining thing that affects negatively salsa.debian.org are occasional HTTP/2 errors. If you also experience these, you might want to +1 the issue https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/issues/404 or help the Salsa admins debug it. As you probably guessed, I am a heavy user of Salsa, and very grateful to Salsa admin for maintaining it! - Otto
