That was the expected behavior. Sounds like the issue is fixed.
Thanks...
First it had to update the cache.
Then it said check Internet for software updates.
Then it downloaded a whole bunch of updates, particularly to Abrowser &
LibreOffice and something called libglib, as well as python, .
Thanks for reporting this bug.
When the download server is not accessible, the update manager says:
"Failed to download repository information.
Check your Internet connection."
I tried to use the old, bad sources.list file, chose "Main server" in
Software and it adjusted the sources file

No idea. I've submitted a bug report[1] and hope this gets addressed soon.

A more detailed solution for me to link back to next time someone has this
issue:
- From the main menu, launch System -> Administration -> Software & Updates
- Click on the dropdown menu labeled "Download from:"
- Select "Main Server"
- Click "Close"
- In the window that pops up, click "Reload"
I'll bump this thread to ask about something.
I faced the same problem on one of my laptops which I haven't been using for
a while. But I installed the same Trisquel from the same iso in a virtual
machine and it automatically had a good sources.list file. So:
1. Is the proper mirror
Thanks Chaosmonk and MB, it seems to work now :)

Yeah, that mirror has been down for a while. See:[1][2]
Edit /etc/apt/sources.list (with sudo) and change the url to a different
mirror.[3] I'm using
when trying to $ sudo apt update I get this:
Ign:1 http://mirrors.serverhost.ro/trisquel/packages flidas InRelease
Ign:2 http://mirrors.serverhost.ro/trisquel/packages flidas-security
InRelease
Ign:3 http://mirrors.serverhost.ro/trisquel/packages flidas-updates InRelease
Err:4
