Kobo firmware page issues

Recently, there's been various issues from Kobo's side with my firmware download page. I've created this thread to record and discuss them.

Firmware API is returning no update, even for requests from actual devices. I have updated the table to use the last known version if no updates are available.

2024-01-28 (FIXED)
Firmware downloads via the Kobo CDN are failing intermittently after downloading ~30 MiB at a time after a long delay. I have created a mirror of Kobo firmware files for now. Mirror links are also available under "Other Versions".

I just chatted with Kobo Support about this, and they are aware of the issue with the Firmware API and are apparently looking into this already...

I appreciate all the work you put into this. Having a mirror is a great idea, too.

Kobo seems to have fixed both of these issues.
