sslforfree.com alternatives ?
Hello,
i've been using sslforfree.com to generate free "lets encrypt" certificates for free , wildcard ssl ones for 90 days .
But now their service is become paid and they limited the free plan to 3 non wildcard SSLs .
Anyone know's any other free alternative which generates "lets encrypt" wildcard free for 90 days ?
Thanks !

Lets encrypt
DNS challenge - voila! Wildcard for free, from LE without a middleman.
Cloudflare is also offering free SSL
Yes but if stick your as** behind their DNS !
You can dl the certificate (doesn't require CDN option to be on)
How please ?
There are any disvantages of using CloudFlare cert on server and using full encryption option?
Gogetssl offers a free 90 day cert, I'm not sure if they're wildcards but they are easy to use.
I think this website would help you.
https://freessl.org/
yep . freessl.org
What prevent you from generating ssl using app such as certbot. You just need to download 1 file, run it, certificate is generated.
Cloudflare is also offering free SSL

You can try Parsslio. It's an alternative to SSLForFree
I dont know why some people using third party website to create a free Let's Encrypt cert. But i'd prefer using ACME to maintain my own Let's Encrypt. I do this with AWS free tier cloud.
ACME.SH with dns validation for wildcard certs.
Another alternative (but it's limited for 3 certificate / account)
https://zerossl.com
It's ACME doesn't have any limit: https://zerossl.com/documentation/acme/
sslforfree uses zerossl to provide certificates
https://freessl.org/ is the best alternative to it.
Why would someone want to have their private key stored with any third party?
Yes, it's true. I'm sorry. Previously it provided also 'Let's encrypt' certificates.
It's a working alternative:
https://gethttpsforfree.com
And it have a source on GitHub, so anyone can host it.
