I have now realised that this plays more of an issue, I am constantly

getting errors such as:

SSL_ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED_ALERT

on firefox, and

ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

on chromium.

This happens to multiple sites, but only to some, there seems to be

no link between them.

For example:

I'm not an expert on these things, but I since I had an SSL issue with
the dotnet tools recently, I'll share a few resources I used to
troubleshoot mine.

There's a few resources on Arch Wiki that helps you troubleshoot SSL
issues:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Transport_Layer_Security
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/OpenSSL
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Network_Security_Services

I used these to check trusted CAs, manually adding the certificates
etc.  Guessing things like your system time is correct? I'd try
accessing them using some other tool like curl, or text-based browsers.
If the issues occurs only with browsers, then try clearing browser
cache?

If the issue is only with some sites, perhaps you don't trust the CA
for these sites? In the example you provided, the issuer is GoDaddy.
