Maybe it's a VPN problem but I don't know what to do

Answer 1

Given that BASE_URL is usually set without a slash at the end, you have f'{BASE_URL}getMe' here, perhaps the wrong url is formed (without a slash before getMe). Try this f'{BASE_URL}/getMe'

Answer 2

Yes, it's a vpn issue. Throws an error that the connection to the Internet has been disconnected
