Earlier this morning, and still heading towards the evening, aur.archlinux.org is unreachable for me. I’ve tried from different computers, different browsers, and even from my phone. Using Pamac always yields “No results,” regardless what I search for.
I believe this is a regional outage, since I can still access the AUR from a VPN or cellular data.
Eastcoast, United States, for what it’s worth.
Pinging archlinux.org or www.archlinux.org works fine:
$ ping archlinux.org
PING archlinux.org (95.217.163.246) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from archlinux.org (95.217.163.246): icmp_seq=1 ttl=47 time=149 ms
However, pinging aur.archlinux.org results in the following error:
$ ping aur.archlinux.org
PING aur.archlinux.org (95.216.144.15) 56(84) bytes of data.
From aur.archlinux.org (95.216.144.15) icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable
On second thought, I have a feeling they banned my IP address for failed login attempts (I was trying to upload a modified package for the first time in years, but I had a couple bumps and had to review the Arch Wiki as a refresher.)
That’s kind of crazy to think about, considering I can’t even search for packages, let alone have Pamac update them, based on an IP address?
yes is current, aur can block one day one ip for too many requests > 4000/day

I think it was because my current .ssh/config file did not have a separate identify that defaults to aur.archlinux.org, and thus it was using the wrong keypair when I tried to clone via git-over-ssh. 
At least I know going forward.
If anyone else is interested, here’s another user who faced the same issue because of the contents of their .ssh/config file:
