It started working again
Same bug when trying to install Battle.net into a clean bottle using Bottles from Flathub on my Fedora 36 system. edit: It did work fine when I purged and re-created the bottle and ran the installer for a second time.
It seems related to battlenet servers, I rarely get the error and to fix it I simply restart the application
Getting this error again after a system update.
