Or is there another more active fork?

No specific issue, but the lack of activity on the issues is a bit worrying.

For example, the out of date regions issue (#18), which is a very simple fix but a very old issue. You can work around it, but it's still not great.

https://community.snowflake.com/s/article/How-To-Connect-Snowflake-with-R-RStudio-using-RODBC-driver-on-Windows-MacOS-Linux

I'm able to connect via those instructions (on a MacOS, the Mac's ODBC config is not working so I spec all params (uid, driver, etc) in the dbConnect).

What is the preferred mechanism ODBC or this repo? DPLYR has come a long way in the last several years; does this project even work anymore?

thank you so much @schnee for pointing to the ODBC link, you got another converter in me :)
Happy with the ODBC and R Studio's nice integration with Snowflake. I would encourage everyone to abandon the dplyr-snowflakedb and switch to ODBC. It is very well documented on both Snowflake side (see above in @schnee comment) as well as in RStudio's side, e.g. https://db.rstudio.com/rstudio/connections/
