Can't connect to aur.archlinux.org:443

I thought that solved the problem.

I could live with only being able to update one of my PCs per day.

But I’m permanently locked out again!

I can occasionally access aur.archlinux.org from my work computer. Absolutely not from my private network. All day long, every day. And then the http page appears with the text “forbidden”.

So I felt compelled to look for a free VPN. ProtonVPN offers a free plan that’s perfectly sufficient for updating the AUR packages on my computer.

Luckily, there are good instructions at:

The appropriate client is also available in the extra repository (I can’t access the AUR right now, unfortunately :wink: )

I signed up with Proton, activated 2FA, followed the instructions above, and then simply launched the app and logged in.

AUR updates are working again with trizen (yay!!!)

Thank you so much for the excellent and detailed instructions. :fox_face:
