Hi! It seems mirrors.digitalocean.com is not working. I’ve tried to install a package with apt-get (php7.0-dev) but it doesn’t even start to transfer the package:

I think that my errors are into the same issue. The only difference i see is that says that “Connection refused”

Hello,
Same with Amsterdam server: “… Cannot initiate the connection to ams2.mirrors.digitalocean.com:80…”. I hope you will resolve this ASAP.
There’s a pretty easy fix for this, similar to the one above - just open /etc/apt/sources.list and change all the instances of the old Ubuntu distro to the new Ubuntu distro.
For example, I was bumping from 15.04 (vivid) to 18.04 (bionic) so I opened the file and changed “vivid” to “bionic” everywhere, and then things worked fine.
