aur locked in RF?

when I try to download something from AUR using yay, it outputs errors:
```
yay -S yay
-> 1 error occurred:
    * request failed: Get "https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc?arg%5B%5D … e=info&v=5": dial tcp 95.216.144.15:443: i/o timeout

-> Failed to find AUR package for yay:1 error occurred:
    * request failed: Get "https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc?arg=yay&b … search&v=5": dial tcp 95.216.144.15:443: i/o timeout

-> No AUR package found for yay
there is nothing to do
```

---

errors occur when trying to update yay:
```
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
Cloning into 'yay'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git/': Failed to connect to aur.archlinux.org port 443 after 135755 ms: Could not connect to server
```

if you enable the proxy (I use vless, and the local host is on socksh5), then everything works fine. what does the ping have to do with aur.archlinux.org it goes with and without a proxy, but the browser opens the same aur.archlinux.org only with the proxy enabled.
by the way, yay used to work even without a proxy (at least the environment variables export http(s)_proxy were not set)

provider - RTK, Krasnodar

AUR shouldn't block any country but does have temporary ip-address bans.
Those typically last 24 hours, wait that long and try again.

If you're still blocked then , send  a message to aur general mailing list

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: aur locked in RF?

You'd however get a status code and not ghosted?

Can you acces wiki.archlinux.org ?
(it's like the AUR on a hetzner server in Helsinki - 135.181.27.174 - if somebody's playing foul here, you'd expect the kindergarten to extend there)

curl -v  95.216.144.15 

should get you 404 (on #80)

curl -v http://aur.archlinux.org/

301 (moved to https)

curl -vL http://aur.archlinux.org/

the AUR webpage.
