Can't run sudo apt-get update

When I try to update I get the output below and it just hangs there.

Code: Select all

Get:2 http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian stretch InRelease [15.0 kB]
Get:3 http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian stretch/main armhf Packages [150 kB]

Any ideas?

Did it ever work?

Which version of Raspbian/NOOBS?

What model Pi?

Is your SD card full?
My mind is like a browser. 27 tabs are open, 9 aren't responding,
lots of pop-ups...and where is that annoying music coming from?

Not sure this is the first time I have tried, it's a Pi 3 B+ 4.14.34-v7+, 16GB card only ever installed PiHole, I have re installed Raspbian from scratch now, didn't take long.
Thanks
