5 days agoIt’s 2025. Not having “real certificates” is something admins intentionally do. Since there is Let’s Encrypt available, all other solutions for non-paid certificates are obsolete.
Exactly. With directly using certbot handling all and everything fully automatically I ran my old setup with a free dyndns subdomain for quite some time without any issues.
Since Let’s encrypt nowadays is basically implemented in every reverse proxy: certificates are an absolute no-brainer.
If someone manages to buy and configure a domain to serve selfhosted content, this person will also be able to either set up certbot or use the built-in functionality of their reverse proxy.
