Your key downloads in under a second for me, so it’s not a size issue. I find the hanging behaviour very odd, I wonder if there’s still an issue in the name resolution on that machine. Does the hanging behaviour happen on every invocation now? Is it just slow for keyserver lookups or does it happen with other operations? Does adding “standard-resolver” to dirmngr.conf make a difference? > I'm pretty sure this was working on my old Mac.

I have access to an apple silicon macbook but it has macports installed rather than homebrew, and I don’t want to mix and match. I’ll see if I can find another one in $WORK for testing. A
