Can't access the AUR without VPN

Since this morning I can't access the AUR with my normal connection anymore.

From Firefox I get:

Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to aur.archlinux.org. PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR
Error code: PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

And from the terminal I get this when trying to git clone a package:

Cloning into 'mullvad-vpn'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://aur.archlinux.org/mullvad-vpn.git/': Send failure: Broken pipe

I pay my ISP for a static IP, btw. It's not a dynamic IP nor am I behind CGNAT. So I don't know why this started happening today. It works when I use a VPN.

Re: Can't access the AUR without VPN

What VPN?
Is working with an IP using github actions?
status.archlinux.org says is Operational but is not operational, is PR_END_OF_FILE_ERROR. And with git is:
Connection closed by 209.126.35.78 port 22
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

We are aware of the issue and are currently working on a fix, it's a bit hard to debug since we rely on users for debug input on this .. See https://status.archlinux.org/ for updates on the situation

Could one of your retry to access the site and report if all is well now?
