I'm still surprised to see in many places issues with handling SSL certificates. eg. internal/external self-signed. Many Java based apps require to have them imported into truststore. Then expiry date comes and broken connection is (hopefully) starting monitoring alarm.
Wrote small article as I was in such cases :)
In world where everything is connected and exposed to internet, interacting with self-signed certificates can be unique experience. I'll not explain here how certificated does work but focus on task which is work with such (self-signed - but not limited to those). How to 'get' remote certificate? Display certificates openssl s_client …

As our company hosts servers, we have a public Security Policy and a security.txt file for ethical hackers to disclose vulnerabilities responsibly: https://handbook.dude.fi/security-policy
Because of this, I receive quite a few reports, most of them ineligible. I've also run into some "security experts" getting upset about not receiving a bounty for a non-issue or putting heavy pressure on payments for valid ones. It often feels unfair, like I'm being held hostage.
That's why replies like the one I just received warm my heart so much:
"Thank you very much for the clarification and for taking quick action to remove the DNS record. I appreciate the transparency and the kind offer as well.
I'd prefer to donate the amount to a child support charity instead. You’re very welcome to donate it on my behalf to any such organization of your choice."
Donation made. Thank you, stranger. Kindness costs nothing.
The #FediVerse difference in a nutshell, I think: relatable interruptions and problems in life.
We don't have service interruptions because some nutter decided to spend millions of quid on some snake oil or playing at politics in a foreign country.
We have service interruptions because the sysop happened to be in the middle of cooking dinner. Or was in IKEA. (-:
And the rest of the world does not fall apart.
It's the BBS days all over again, where we actually know our #sysops as people, which isn't a bad thing.
