First of all, this how-to is for Dog-based OS users.

Once in a while, updating and upgrading can be very slow, so it may be time to look for another mirror, and netselect-apt is making this process very easy.

After installing it, enter this command to find fastest debian mirror list:
sudo netselect-apt.

This command will automatically select the fastest mirror according to your geographical location and it will save the output in sources.list file in your current directory.

Devuan mirrors are not supported.
