The one thing stopping adoption for a lot of people is wilcard support.<p><a href="https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/please-support-wildcard-certificates/258" rel="nofollow">https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/please-support-wildcard-...</a>
Just to be clear, this is important because eventually Let's Encrypt wants to no longer have to cross-sign their certificates for them to be considered valid.<p>For that to happen they have to be added as a trusted CA in most major platforms (and Firefox which has their own CA store for some reason).
Excellent news. The more trust the better. It's still no good using LE for API endpoints as many client libs (java, etc) don't trust it or it's cross-signer.
Hacker News should switch from Comodo to Let's Encrypt. Scumbags attempted to trademark Let's Encrypt. <a href="https://letsencrypt.org/2016/06/23/defending-our-brand.html" rel="nofollow">https://letsencrypt.org/2016/06/23/defending-our-brand.html</a>
Question: any possible case of bad apples that make let's encrypt suddenly lose their trust? Eg bcoz it's free, it's used by "bad guys" just like .info tld.
I find it a little hilarious that the cert for the Test URL, <a href="https://helloworld.letsencrypt.org" rel="nofollow">https://helloworld.letsencrypt.org</a> is a 90-day certificate that is expired as of a long time ago.<p><a href="https://i.imgur.com/1bQLHuF.png" rel="nofollow">https://i.imgur.com/1bQLHuF.png</a>
