Anyone know a European alternative to LetsEncrypt?

And I mean: get a free (or very reasonably priced) certificate for a private web site with one or two sub-domains?

I recently learned about a new way to leak your #privacy, and it’s a scary one. Before going further, know that I’m not a network engineer: perhaps if you work in this field, you’ve known it for your whole career, but it’s quite new to me. Let me share my findings, and you can judge for yourself.

Since the original post was quite lengthy, I have broken it down into two installments: the problem and the solution.

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!

My #HomeAssistant installation is 3 months and 4 days old. How do I know?

Came back from a business trip and the #TLS cert expired.

The #LetsEncrypt add-on does not automatically renew the certificate. For whatever reason. Wrote an automation now.

If you're a server admin for a fediverse instance (and other use cases) and using nginx, try their new ACME module.

It's easy to setup, you can build nginx with the module statically or dinamically linked or use the package nginx-module-acme.

This way you'll never have to worry again about TLS certificates expiring and bringing downtime to your service.

It's not compatible with wildcards, tho. But it's written in Rust!

Just be careful with anvils falling on your head
