I have the same issue, I tried on another WSL, on my local machine but they did not work, what processor do you have?

It's hard to tell what the underlying issue is here, and probably that it's not really fixable (firewall things, connection issues etc), but we should surface the error better.

I have the same issue, I tried with node v18.17.1, windows and it stays loading in the template copying with every option (use sample files, use blog template and empty). Also tried with npm create astro@4 (it installed version 4.8) to check an older version, with the same result.
