- mrkurt 9y agoIt's not, it's meant for cases where people need entirely different custom hostnames. Subdomains are quick and easy, but people have become quite a bit more demanding about how their stuff is branded, and tend to want it all on mydomain.com (instead of me.service.com). Actually I lied, it's probably a little easier than a wildcard cert. :D But not enough to matter. People who just need wildcard subdomains might want to use us for other reasons. We handle all load balancing, global SSL termination, etc. These things are stuff you'd use even if you were just using a wildcard cert.
- askz 9y agoActually when Let's Encrypt will provide free wildcard in early 2018 the later will be much more easier !
- matahwoosh 9y agoYes! We're looking forward to this at Fly :)
