Then yeah, what’s the issue with giving your subdomains a certificate?

I am fairly new to self hosting and just wanted to know if this was a big enough deal that I should just get a domain that doesn’t require HSTS preload. It’s one thing to tinker with an IP address on a local network for some unimportant project; it’s just intimidating to try it for real using a domain and hosting my own data.
I’m just a little nervous tbh. Thanks for the help!

Not much to be nervous about, you can’t fuck it up anymore than it already is since the HSTS is preloaded ;) ACME/Let’sEncrypt is pretty easy to setup
