Looking at the fragility of the internet, there is one pillar that doesn't appear to be on anyone's radar. That is #letsencrypt .

Lets Encrypt just works so is clearly not front and center lately but with certificate lifecycle being reduce further and further over the coming years, it is probably not wise to bank on a single provider where an over-run of renewals could DDoS them into oblivion.

What other options are out there? #tlscertificate #tls

PSA: Falls du eine (Sub)Domain mit einem HTTP-Redirect umleiten möchtest, aber keinen Webserver zur Hand hast:

@markusr hat dafür einen kleinen Redirect Service gebaut. Der Service ist kostenlos und ohne Registrierung nutzbar.

• Set-up nur mit DNS-Records
• IPv4 (A) und IPv6 (AAAA-Record)
• HTTP Status Code konfigurierbar
• #Letsencrypt für TLS/HTTPS
• Support für CNAME

Die Anleitung dazu findest du hier:

I have had good experience with 'lego' - Lets Encrypt in Go - stand alone binary that can run on almost any system. Automate with cron.

Yesterday, 10 years ago, Let's Encrypt issued their first #TLS #certificate to the domain name helloworld.letsencrypt.org. Since then, they issued 7 billion certificates.

To quote Borat: "Great success!"

Congrats!

What #OpenSource and #SelfHost can do. Had an idea, discussed it here. Seemed to rhyme with people. Booked two domains. Created a landing page with #Jekyll and CI/CD from a #git repo on my #Forgejo instance. Created logo with #Inkscape. Added #letsencrypt certificate. Put it on my VPS (Virtual Private Server) running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, (#RHEL) where it is now served with #Nginx. Git repo mirrored to #Codeberg so all can join. In under 8h.

🔐 Let’s Encrypt Begins Supporting IP Address Certificates • Linuxiac

https://linuxiac.com/lets-encrypt-begins-supporting-ip-address-certificates/

#letsencrypt #selfhosting #ssl

We see that #LetsEncrypt is now experimentally issuing IPv4 and IPv6 certs! (https://letsencrypt.org/2025/07/01/issuing-our-first-ip-address-certificate/).

This is fantastic news for people who want to set up their own #DOH or #DOT servers that support automatic encryption upgrade (DDR - https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9462/).

We look forward to this being put into production. We wish the expiry time was a bit longer - maybe a new profile with 30 day validity? But in any case - great to see this happening. 👏
