Here (or the dev list) is as good a place as any :)

What this normally means is that osmosis has somehow "become confused" - 
somehow some invalid replication data appeared, or you tried to reset 
the replication data and something failed, or you tried to reset the 
replication date for the first time since the http -> https move happened.

Here's what's in /var/lib/mod_tile/.osmosis/state.txt on a server of 
mine right now:

#Wed May 09 20:40:05 CEST 2018
sequenceNumber=2963281
timestamp=2018-05-09T18\:39\:01Z

You should have something similar.  If you have something other than a 
valid sequenceNumber / timestamp combination, try resetting the 
replication date to a known-good value.  Typically I'd do that with 
"openstreetmap-tiles-update-expire".  Note that when the OSM servers 
moved from http to https a change to that was needed to ensure that the 
files are obtained from https URLs (since osmosis didn't follow 
redirects).  In the version that I use (and the version referred to by 
the switch2osm guide) that is:
