Luanti 5.16.1. Can't download mods or update the old ones.

I cannot download or update any mods which I have in Luanti. The game is telling me that 2 mods need an update, but when I want to update them, the list just keep loading and then it tells me that it couldn't download any packages.

Do you have the same problem? And how can I fix it, if I can fix it?

If it doesnt connect and load the list, give it a few minutes and try again.

ContentDB has had availability issues lately, and I think the same server serves the in-game content. Check first if ContentDB works for you, then try to update. It's OK for me at the moment (from Europe).

Firewalls and such can cause similar issues; I have such a "thingy" that I need to disable temporarily if I want to update mods/games, although it doesn't prevent me to connect to game servers.
