Effectively certificates are now a license to publish.
- devsda 9mo agoOn a PC we atleast have an out. On mobile, user certs are pretty much ignored unless opted in by apps. Even firefox allows user certs (for now) but only via an obscure hidden config. This means we cannot use self-hosted services even using a VPN with official apps without getting a signed cert.
