If there is any other better repository, please share... See more

I do not think that there is a single repository where you can get all up-to-date Hunspell dictionaries. If you are interested in a particular language, better go to the respective project site (example: Grammalecte for French).

If you don’t know the site, good points to start are LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice extensions sites.

FreeOffice repository May 14, 2021

I have found also this one, with fairly updated Hunspell spell checking dictionaries: https://www.freeoffice.com/en/download/dictionaries

The .sox format can be decompressed the same way as a ZIP file (at least on my GNU/Linux machine).

For French, I agree dictionary provided by Grammalecte is the way to go, thanks esperantisto!
