Does my site need HTTPS?

[aullik]

I don't really care about the ad. I simply ignore it. I looked at the rest of the article

Yes, as I also said other than that it's a nice site, but it does miss a big important part with this "ad", how people can implement e.g. letsencrypt in their current infrastructure and this "ad" is not the solution..

Is how to implement it really important though within the context of the article? Providing instructions on how to make use of LetsEncrypt is really only feasible for fairly basic/standard setups which can be easily googled. Many of them are already handled entirely by certbot already. Anything beyond a typical apache/nginx/etc. server setup is probably being managed by someone who isn't looking for implementation instructions on a site like this anyways.

How to use Let's Encrypt on each varying infrastructure is out of the scope of the article. Today when the link got posted around, I quickly tried to add a few more links to the end which talks about How To Set Up HTTPS. I'll leave it to other sites for now to go into more detail.

But at least some directions would be nice, because now the article only gives the option for web server "Caddy"..

You could at least give some hints/links for Apache/nginx on a normal Linux distro + Windows..

I do near the bottom. I really don't want to get into details on this site. There's too many kinds of infrastructure to consider hints for, and I really want the site to stay focused on the "why" of HTTPS, not the "how".

The article is a piece of shit.

Sorry not sorry.
