I know for me, it was a choice between farting around with lets-encrypt for hours, or a $40 wildcard cert. so I went with the $40/year cert instead.
There are just too many choices for lets-encrypt with no super-simple how-to for people who don't know this stuff (like myself).
- metafunctor 11y agoI thought the same, until I actually took it upon myself to actually try LE. 15 minutes later, I had all my sites on LE, automatic renewal configured. I'm looking forward not having to sign in to some website, cut'n'paste certificates around, convert to/from PEM, figuring out what the correct chain is this time, etc.
- novaleaf 11y agoI guess I'm stupid then, because I spent more than an hour trying to figure an easy way to add these to my auto-provisioned servers before giving up and using the static cert instead.
