Plasma 6 Bugs
If you encounter a bug, proceed to https://bugs.kde.org, check whether it has been reported.
If it hasn't, report it yourself.
PLEASE THINK CAREFULLY BEFORE POSTING HERE.
Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Yeah as others have hinted at this is going to be easier with a router/network level feature.
I'm sure there's a way to do this by setting up a special virtual interface, limiting the bandwidth on that interface and then using iptables to redirect the apt traffic to that interface or something to that effect but I'm not a network engineer and I don't have the experience to help with something like that. There might also be a way to do this with cgroups to limit the bandwidth but again that's above my level of expertise.
