Just out of curiosity, what other trusted certificate authorities are there that offer ssl certs for free and no strings attached other than letsencrypt?

What you’re talking about was already the situation before LE existed, we’re not going back to that. There’s other free providers now too.

Ok. That’s a good argument. I didn’t realize that the forces for good here were so strong in this.
But frankly I’d rather not depend on them either.

Well, self-sign your own certs and deal with the implications of not being a trusted root certificate authority
