I have not posted much in a while so I thought I could give a quick shout out to the EFF Foundation and their Certbot.
Anybody running their own servers should look into it. It has made my life much easier running 5 websites.

I usually send them the money I would have spent on certs every year as a donation. 🙂

@Blort @gpumoto Certbot is an ACME client (one of many) that let you obtain certificates from an ACME compatible certificate authority. Let’s Encrypt is the most popular free ACME compatible CA, but there are others.

@Blort

Let's Encrypt is a Certificate signing Authority (CA) .
Certbot is an automated program that generates SSL Certificates and gets the Certificate signed (in this case by Let's Encrypt) and updates it in the server.

Pretty cool system.

Hope this helps!
