This error does not come from my extension, but probably from the Cinnamon extension downloader.
Have you tried downloading other extensions, I think the same problem will occur too?

@StLeoX The download code uses the requests Python module. Have you modified your system's stock Python environment that could impact this module? That is likely the issue here.

pip3 show requests
Name: requests
Version: 2.22.0

apt show python3-requests
Package: python3-requests
Version: 2.25.1+dfsg-2ubuntu0.1

There exist two requests, maybe that's the problem?

What happens when you do this in a terminal?

$ python3
Python 3.10.12 (main, Jun 11 2023, 05:26:28) [GCC 11.4.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import requests
>>> 

[StLeoX]

>>> import requests
>>> print(requests.__version__)
2.22.0
>>> 

it works

But it looks like your Python path is inconsistent. Something in your environment is unfortunately broken.
