Why would the Chinese have their own pypi mirror software? I think they are running the same software as western companies.

- pxeger1 3y agoProbably because accessing PyPI directly is slow, because of the Great Firewall.
- woodruffw 3y agoI think the GP is asking why Chinese engineers would have their own software for mirroring, not why they'd have their own mirrors. (I believe most Chinese mirrors use bandersnatch[1], like most non-Chinese mirrors.) [1]: https://github.com/pypa/bandersnatch https://github.com/pypa/bandersnatch
