IT admins, get ready to grumble
Let’s encrypt is about to get even more market share. Suddenly companies will have even less reasons to pay money for a cert.

IT admins, get ready to grumble
Let’s encrypt is about to get even more market share. Suddenly companies will have even less reasons to pay money for a cert.
And I’m over here with a internal only SSL cert that’s good for 1000 years
What a pain in the ass. I will probably just disable HTTPS and use a VPN or SSH tunnel for my stuff then.
Jesus, dude… ACME is not hard to set up.
Setting up a VPN is far far more complex
Just use auto-renewal tools Duh.
This raises a good point. The path of least resistant typically becomes the norm.
We could be heading into daily (or hourly) cert auto-renewals. Clients will have to catch up. But one day, can see it all being hands-free.

God I hate this, dropping it to one year is fine but a month and a half? Fuck that shit.
Id you can use acme/cert boy it’s fine. But some of us have to manage decades old equipment that doesn’t support it and no we can’t just put a reverse proxy in front we tried.
