Just curious, are you talking about Webflow? Because I had to hunt down and make sure our Let's Encrypt auto renewal was working until I realized the certificate was served by them. They wait until the last 12 hours to renew the certificate. I have no idea what type of rationalization would lead to that decision.

90 days is 4 times a year. 60 is 6 times, 50% more expensive when you’re paying someone to perform the task.

  I had the same thought, but I still find that absurd. Say they host 500,000 websites with HTTPS. 1,000,000 renewals they save spread across the year, roughly 2 renewals a minute. That is pennies. A t2.medium could handle that type of load increase

    A bit OT, but what's up with this usage of Amazon EC2 tiers as a unit of computational power?

      It is a clearly priced unit of computational power maybe?

      i think it’s a combined “fixed cost” rather than just computational power... like you could do it with x, thus it should cost at most y similar to saying that you could do it with a raspberry pi

Not webflow. We auto renew way before LE expires the cert.
