When I upgrade my packages, it says that the pgp signature of every package is wrong. But I know that that's not right. How do I stop this message from happening? (lemmy.ml)

Update only archlinux-keyring and try again.

# pacman -S archlinux-keyring
# pacman -Syu

In some cases you may need to re-populate the keyring.

# pacman-key --init
# pacman-key --populate

I tried both options in order and neither worked.

Then maybe the downloaded packages are actually corrupted. You could check if they have plausible file sizes. IIRC pacman will ask you if you want to delete the non-matching files but I'm not entirely sure. They should end up in /var/cache/pacman/pkg.
