Workaround for those who have the same problem. Download and extract the previous version for urllib from here: https://rsync.kodi.tv/addons/nexus/script.module.urllib3/

Upload all extracted files to your raspberry running kodi into this path: /storage/.kodi/addons/script.module.urllib3/

dont forget to turn off auto updates untli this gets fixed!

The next version will have full urllib3 2.1.0 support. Beta is in the plex forum thread if you want to try it out.

Fixed with 0.6.5+rev5, thanks for reporting
