I don't have any idea on how to fix this error at the moment.

It seems to be related to a Discogs server update, which happened to be at the same time these errors started to appear. My guess is, that they've updated their server's SSL certificates to more modern versions and are dropping support for older clients (e.g., Windows 7).
