New KaOS Mirror in Iran

FakeShell

Howdy
We are hosting a mirror of KaOS at https://mirror.bardia.tech/kaos (we are hosting over 80 repositories with 10Gbps uplink)
I was looking for an email address to send the required information but could not find one.
Are there any devs/mods around to help me out with this?
Thanks

Hi FakeShell , thanks so much for this, looks like all is set already, and this mirror will be added to the KaOS mirror-list today.
Would you like to be added to the sponsor page? https://kaosx.us/about/sponsors/ And if so, how? Image? Link?

EDIT:
Added https://github.com/KaOSx/core/commit/2af4dfed2aadc95a270a8698d248db6f3466a545

You can add
Mirror of KaOS in Iran provided by Bardia Moshiri with an uplink of 10Gbps
Or something among those lines.

Is this mirror going to be active again, or did you decide to remove KaOS? Mirror has not synced since May this year, and no longer links to the mirror site, goes to backup instead.
Since I have no email address to communicate about this, I hope to get a reply here. If not, then it is time to remove this mirror from the available list.

I am in Pakistan and I am glad that there is a mirror in Iran (our neighboring country). But unfortunately, ISO folder is empty. I am getting really bad download speed from SourceForge or other mirrors available on KaOS website and I could not find any torrent for latest ISO file. Sadly I made this account to try KaOS as I love KDE but I guess it will have to wait now.

As noted above, the mirror was no longer syncing, and no way to get in touch, so the mirror was removed.
Not clear which mirrors you tried, but there are a few in Asia and Eastern Europe.
If you get a bad connection with SourceForge, best to restart, it uses about 25 different mirrors all over the world, and at times it just connects you to the worst one.....(restart will almost always connect you to a different mirror).

Download speed was about 1.5 MBps (not Mb) at start but now it is downloading at 100-200 KBps. Mostly around 100KBps. The sole reason for me wanting to try KaOS was to stay within KDE ecosystem. But now I am afraid that updates from repositories may also be slow.
It would have been great if I was able to download KaOS from official torrent of latest build.
