Thank you folks, finally figured it out with your help.
I think the problem is that I was removing packages through pacman but installing them through paru -- meaning that the paru cache wasn't getting cleaned out. Make sure you run paru -Sc (or sim. for your AUR wrapper of choice) to clear the AUR cache as well.
I also had the ImportError issue stated below. I resolved it by removing this package and all its dependencies: yay -Rcnssu proton-vpn-gtk-app (check the flags used for yourself, some of these may be unnecessary in this instance).
I then did a clean build when reinstalling.
I had the same issue as @Bicyforecastle, but managed to get it work after installing all the python-proton packages listed in the dependencies here manually.
Like other users below, still getting "cannot import name" errors when I try to run the app. I tried uninstalling all proton packages, clearing the cache with paccache -ruk0, and re-installing each proton package from paru individually. Does anyone have tips on what I might be doing wrong? Here's the traceback:

@ImperatorStorm Thanks for noticing, I've removed them for now, but I think this should be fixed upstream as setup.py is picking them by mistake I think and installing them
As of 4.3.1-1, this package dumps version.py and versions.yaml in /usr.
Arch Linux, kde plasma 6, /usr/share/applications/protonvpn.desktop is were I copied the shortcut from. Just trying to help new users of Linux. That all.
@theone77 It does install a .desktop file, what DE/WM are you using that is not detecting that? You should have a /usr/share/applications/protonvpn.desktop
Does not make a desktop shortcut for this application automatically. So made it myself. Thank you for your work.
In my particular case it seemed to be a clash actually with Gnome keyring - I posted what solved mine below my issue.

@shoryuken thank you, that worked!
@ali.molaei I'm not sure of technicalities of dependencies, but if you cannot force
network-manager-appletas a dependency I think you should at least pin some comment explaining that getting it might fix issues. As it stands I accidentally found the solution at other package page https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/protonvpn-cli#comment-951908, and only since it's the newest one.
