Lets Encrypt Down because of "Incident"
in General
https://letsencrypt.status.io/pages/incident/55957a99e800baa4470002da/69fe2d6698ca07050eb4b1b3
lets just hope it's a technical one...

Well, that can't be good...
I forgot who says "Wonder what'd happen if let's encrypt went down"
Yeah, this is a worrisome development.
Significantly depends on downtime longevity - I don't expect anything serious to happen for a downtime of up to 1 day.
Anyway, there are also alternatives like https://zerossl.com/
Its gonna get funny, when we are down to 7 day certs and lets encrypt is down for a week.
According to Josh Aas it's a "compliance issue": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48068096
Discord seems to be down for over an hour too, unclear as to if its related to the let's encrypt incident.
Some sites showing SSL Error by nginx, not possible to access at all.
Can't be that bad. Let is still working.
