Something doesn't seem to work as designed with latest changes regarding custom mirror selection.
When I run
pacman-mirrors -gic Germany
and select just netzspielplatz as my custom mirror, resulting /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist contains

and I get a /var/lib/pacman-mirrors/custom-mirrors.json like this:

[
    {
        "country": "Germany",
        "protocols": [
            "https"
        ],
        "url": "https://mirror.netzspielplatz.de/manjaro/packages/"
    }

However when I run pacman -Syu now, I can tell by the sync time that netzspielplatz is certainly not being used as the primary or only mirror.
As soon as I edit /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist manually and remove all unwanted mirrors, I see the desired result and apparently only now my custom mirror is being used as the only one.

Ok, I don't know. I was referring to the latest non-dev package updates yesterday in unstable branch...

I know and it is a confirmed bug in the release - the wrong list is fed to function which creates the mirrorlist.
