I have used certbot for many years and have never found a good configuration that I like that does auto updates. I am using wildcard domains with command certbot certonly --manual -d domain.com -d '*.domain.com' so the normal automatic update can not be used unless you use an additional script...

What's the state of getting FreeBSD (or another BSD) to Atom-based 32-bit UEFI SoC PCs such as the Wintel W8? Or perhaps this could be something to work on since I think that many people are looking at such as home servers. The Android 4.4 that some of them have also seems pretty much redundant...
