Makes sense, just update the keyrings here & there @RayJW , it should take care of that part.

I tried your fix, sadly to no avail. After refreshing the keys this is the output for sudo pacman -Sy:
error: cachyos: signature from "CachyOS <admin@cachyos.org>" is invalid

This time I was quick enough to run sudo pacman --debug -Syu and some of the interesting output looks like this:

I’m not sure what to make of this. Is it possible that this is a server side issue which I just regularly encounter due to usually updating multiple times a day before installing things?
Edit: removing /var/lib/pacman/sync/cachyos.db and then refreshing fixed the issue. That might be the reason why enough time usually fixed the error. Maybe the fix was the db being outdated enough for it to be synced and thus the corruption getting fixed. In that case sudo pacman -Syyu should also be enough tho, but that’s not the case as far as I remember.
Yeah, its due to the top mirror being used at your side (cdn77). You can try rating mirrors sudo cachyos-rate-mirrors and if cdn77 still is the top mirror, you can remove it manually in /etc/pacman.d/cachyos{,-v3,-v4,-znver4}-mirrorlist
Yep did that back some time ago, I had problems with that very one.

@naim thanks for the look and suggestion.
That makes sense, and it also explains why I only see the error on one device. Mirrors must’ve been ranked differently. Thanks for the help!
