    Relevant to !selfhosted because one of the projects getting funding cut is Let’s Encrypt.

      It’s okay, Let’s Encrypt only provides SSL certs for… 63.7% of the market?

      Okay okay, that is a lot. But what does a CA need funding for anyway? It doesn’t take much bandwidth to send out new certs.

      The only thing that could be expensive is if they had to rapidly invalidate thousands of certs to protect the security of the entire internet.

      But haha, that’s a pretty outlandish scenario that would never happen.
