@f8-ptrk Looks like we also have to remove the link to https://lotus.filecoin.io/kb/chain-snapshots/.

The link should be changed from https://lotus.filecoin.io/kb/chain-snapshots/ to https://forest-archive.chainsafe.dev/list/mainnet/latest.

Due to the growth in the size of the chain since its genesis, it is not advised for storage providers to sync the entire history of the network. Instead, providers should use the available [lightweight snapshots](https://lotus.filecoin.io/kb/chain-snapshots/) to import the most recent messages. One exception in which a provider would need to sync the entire chain would be to run a blockchain explorer.
