It's not like DnF. The connection is just so limited to me. I tried proxies, I tried restarting the download around fifteen times and everything. It will always give me a static of around 200 kb/15 seconds (the only thing that's actually a real number; all the rest of the downloader is just wonky)

I am by no means being "lazy" I just don't see why we have to always use these silly forced download managers when they could just create an installer and upload it...

That's why i'm just asking ONE nice person to maybe upload a file to the magical internet while they go out of go to sleep or whatever.
