The last day of so, I've noticed updates and downloads being abnormally slow. Anyone else?

Fdroid apps have mirrors for its own repo but you never know which server is used and why it is slow.

On droidify, you can choose one yourself. Choose one closer to you so It balances out load to main server.

Tap and hold the f-droid repo
Press edit
On the address dropdown
Choose a different mirror.

Find one closer to you and check if they're updated as same as official mirror: https://marzzzello.gitlab.io/mirror-monitor/mirror/

You'll have to re-sync the repo, so the app verifications won't fail. Sometimes it may also require an app restart.
