is there a way to change the mirrors not through my software sources I think my mirrors are always abit broken

and where can I get a list of linux mint mirrors

don't know why sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade keeps not working or being really slow but GUI update manger works

strange

or updating cache in update manager or software sources takes ages and always comes up with an error

could this be a mirror issue itself?

Restart your router, if you use one, and try

sudo apt update

from the terminal, show results

Okay, you were correct. Somehow that fixed the issue. What helped was also switching mirrors to default and trying to switch back to another mirror that was still close enough to me after replugging in the ethernet cable.. No idea how you knew exactly that this would fix it but alright

Thanks.
