Hello!

The problem is that Roskomnadzor has started blocking Snowflake bridges that are used in Tor.

Thanks for the report @saber716rus! I've opened an issue in the snowflake repository to try and track down the cause of the block: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/pluggable-transports/snowflake/-/issues/40407

I will add that it rarely happens that the connection is successful, but it will not last long. when I started using it, everything was fine, even the speed was excellent. but over time, Roskomnadzor discovered and began to adjust its filters to block. they update their filters every 6 hours.
