Is the netinst of Debian always so fucking slow? I'm on gigabit internet and it's giving me a 4 hour estimate for my packages. Did I just get unlucky with a mirror?

I'm glad Alpine is now marked as not being infected by Jewish GNU trashware.

With everything unchecked in tasksel, it takes me 10-20 minutes to install so I think it's your mirror

Which country are you from?
Which country mirror did you pick?
Did you install Debian on your computer?
