Let’s Encrypt will be reducing the validity period of the certificates we issue. We currently issue certificates valid for 90 days, which will be cut in half to 45 days by 2028. This change is being made along with the rest of the industry, as required by the CA/Browser Forum Baseline Requirements, which set the technical requirements that we must follow. All publicly-trusted Certificate Authorities like Let’s Encrypt will be making similar changes. Reducing how long certificates are valid for helps improve the security of the internet, by limiting the scope of compromise, and making certificate revocation technologies more efficient.

    En el caso del https, puedes renovarlo automáticamente con nginx o con certbot y nunca tendrás que preocuparte o feddit se caería a cada rato

    No sé si habrán lugares que te den por más días, pero antiguamente los certificados eran caros y con let’s encrypt ya son gratis. Ya veo que en un futuro hacen que las renovaciones automáticas sean con alguna suscripción 😭
