It’s breaking the access to the website and not a good look for the “app store for Linux”. A lesson in central points of failure?

And it’s still less shit than Snaps. It’s the giant douche and turd sandwich situation with this stuff.

https://www.flathub.org is using Let’s encrypt. Their certs only last 90 days so you need a script to make sure they are updated and pushed to your site. https://flathub.org uses Globalsign which lasts for 13 months. My guess is they don’t have a process for reconciling the two types of end dates.

It’s not hard to automate? I remember when Firefox had this same flub, lol

You don’t even need to automate. Certbot comes with a systemd timer called certbot-renew.timer which does this for you.

Even just manually, how hard is it to put a reminder in a calendar somewhere? I’ve never understood how/why this happens, it’s really but difficult.

It’s broken on the www.flathub.org domain but not on just flathub.org by itself. Despite browsers trying to get rid of www its still commonly used.

Yeah, it isn’t a good look for flathub. I looked at the certificate and the Subject Alternative Names section was missing the www prefix. Why they’re not using Let’s Encrypt and certbot beats me because this could all be automated.

So basic. Even I had it automated for my personal wedding website. Lol.
