Issue installing Proton VPN

I was installing proton vpn using this guide and replacing dnf with rpm-ostree. I got to sudo rpm-ostree install proton-vpn-gnome-desktop when I got this error
error: importing RPMs: package proton-vpn-gnome-desktop-0.8.0-1.fc41.noarch cannot be verified and repo protonvpn-fedora-stable is GPG enabled: /var/cache/rpm-ostree/repomd/protonvpn-fedora-stable-41-x86_64/packages/proton-vpn-gnome-desktop-0.8.0-1.fc41.noarch.rpm could not be verified.

I know I need to use the GPG keys in the guide, but I can't figure out how to do that. Thanks!

I don't believe it was working when I first tried, but I can try again

That just means they wont help you But its proton those mfs will never help you even if you were a paying customer

I also have the same reading of that. it doesn't mean it doesn't work. they're (rightfully) distancing themselves from the flatpak so they don't have to be responsible for it

They are working into making the flatpak official too

I use it daily, everything works fine even port forwarding, but it needs a layered package to set up the port

also, you should not be using sudo rpm-ostree install ..., specifically the sudo part
