Hey everyone! 👋

Hi @rogerluan but the chances of Apple fixing their code anytime soon are pretty low so maybe fastlane can work around it somehow? They did their 10 second retries so maybe something else needs to be incorporated?

I’ve opened a PR that should resolve the issues you guys are seeing: https://github.com/fastlane/fastlane/pull/21742

@ everyone, if you wanna help (and increase the chances of your CI succeeding 😇), you can help test this PR of mine in the wild 🙇 this would be tremendously helpful and I’d be super grateful! ☺️ — Check out the PR description for steps on how to install my PR in your fastlane setup

Looking forward to hearing feedback from the community whether the proposed solution works 🙏

@ArthurAlvarez I reviewed your PR and I proposed a different solution (see PR above), I hope you’re okay with that! 🙇 thank you for taking a stab at fixing this issue, though! Super helpful! ❤️
