I've been having some problems with fetching dependencies for dub 
both locally and, especially, in the CI. It's basically that 
repository seems to be down, even though actual website works. 
Does this happen a lot or am I just unlucky? And is it something 
the community is aware of and trying to fix or not?

This happens, less than in the past as there is a miror. You can 
check the uptime here [1]. Data for the last few months are 
rather encouraging.

This issue is a recurring one. Does it have to do with hosting?

upgrade of their hardware.

The Internet was still functioning. I could visit other sites.

So the problem was at code.dlang's end and not the Internet.

Just guessing.

I think the dub registry and code.dlang.org are two distinct 
things.

There have been some improvements to it recently.

There is also the mirror at dub.bytecraft.nl
Newer versions of dub have it as a fallback.
You can request it explicitly by passing the --registry to dub.
