The certbot let's encrypt agent is unfortunately stuck in a Snap package, at least last I tried setting it up. Always feels like Snap has been pushed by some invisible proprietary influence, not organic growth due to it being a good idea. I never saw anything wrong with package managers or a reason I should like Snap. My experience is that I've only been forced to use it against my will.

I was also very annoyed by that and supporting legacy servers with letsencrypt, and then I found acme.sh script to replace certbot: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh Simple and light without big dependencies as running in bash! I would recommend it a thousand times!

  OpenBSD started packaging an ACME client: https://man.openbsd.org/acme-client.1 https://man.openbsd.org/acme-client.1 It's probably also a reasonable alternative.
