Immich API can connect remotely, not local

O canm reach my immich instance on two urls:
- remote https://photos.my-domain.com
- local https://photos.lan (functions perfectly fine and exactly like a remote domain, it has proper SSL etc, just that it is LAN)

The Immich CLI cannot connect to the local, it says
immich login https://photos.lan/api MY_API_KEY 
Logging in to https://photos.lan/api
Failed to load user info - TypeError: fetch failed
immich login https://photos.lan/api MY_API_KEY 
Logging in to https://photos.lan/api
Failed to load user info - TypeError: fetch failed


It works on remote url with exact same details but remote URL instead of LAN url

This is truly annoying since now:
- app does not work on large libs
- immich-go cannot read meta data half the time for some reason (perhaps outdated?) even if present, does not even consider sidecar files (or embedded metadata)
- immich cli requires me to log in remotely, resulting in a staggering 84 hours upload time, probably just to get a final result of "has issues"

How can i make it accept local url?
