I have no idea if this is what the OP is referring to, but it's pretty much impossible to use HTTPS on your home network without managing your own Root CA and somehow managing to get certificates signed by that Root CA into your devices.
You've got a fighting chance in a corporate network where you can deploy and manage the Root CA via Active Directory/Group Policy, but managing it at home with consumer-grade devices... not gonna be a good day.

Personally I've been running my own domain + wildcard for a few years, it'll be nice to remove the cost of the wildcard from the setup. 1. https://letsencrypt.org/2017/07/06/wildcard-certificates-coming-jan-2018.html https://letsencrypt.org/2017/07/06/wildcard-certificates-com...
