There was something more than the plugin problem.
The authentication error would render me unable to install any plugin onward.
I even tried to update the user password thinking it could be some data migration problem, but it also failed (the dialog never saved, it also showed no error message at all)
Maybe something to do with the Argon2 alerts on the logs.
