+## Snapshots
+
+The [#fil-infra](https://filecoinproject.slack.com/archives/C039RBG3RPC) team at PL has launched a brand new Lightweight Filecoin Chain Snapshots Service to support chain management needs for the node operators, check [here](https://www.notion.so/pl-strflt/Lightweight-Filecoin-Chain-Snapshots-17e4c386f35c44548f5863afb7b5e024) for the full detail. 
+We are planning to switch [the snapshot service listed in lotus docs](https://lotus.filecoin.io/lotus/manage/chain-management/#lightweight-snapshot) to the new Lightweight Filecoin Chain Snapshots Service by EOY, and deprecate public support of the current snapshots production. We recommend all users to test and switch the new service ASAP, and if you run into any issue, please report them [here](https://github.com/filecoin-project/filecoin-chain-archiver/discussions/new?category=feedback) and the team would be happy to support you! For main difference between the old & the new service, checkout the FAQ section [here](https://www.notion.so/pl-strflt/Lightweight-Filecoin-Chain-Snapshots-17e4c386f35c44548f5863afb7b5e024)
