Unreal Engine 5.6 Linux, Fab and Bridge not working


as you can see, on unreal engine 5.6 and previously on 5.6 preview , fab and bridge both show the same error , that doesn’t happen with 5.5.4 where fab worked perfectly , is there a way to fix that? is it a dns issue? I’m currently on CachyOS with KDE Plasma, for bridge ,is shows categories with no thumbnails and when I try to login it shows this exact error , for fab it doesn’t work at all

EDIT:
I spent the day trying to figure out a way , and now I give up, I tried running unreal engine 5.6 from lutris and it works perfectly , surprisingly enough , the fps in lutris is better than native , fab is working , bridge is working , my metahumans are showing up , everything seems to be working , third person new template combat works out of the box, I see some flicker where there is some tooltip showing up but that’s it , try lutris , install epic games launcher, install unreal engine , fab and bridge from the epic games launcher,

Same error error DNS resolving here with Manjaro Linux in Unreal 5.6, in previous version works fine
