Whenever I see mentions of go links, I think "How are you handling TLS?" which there's not a great answer for* so I think it's neat that the extension model solves this problem.

* I don't trust most enterprise IT teams to be able to set-up and administer a secure CA with the appropriate critical nameConstraint that limits the CA to signing certificates for `go`.

OP: You should probably mention the TLS problem on https://www.golinks.io/support.php#technical since right now I assume the CNAME approach will only work with HTTP.

That's a great suggestion, our support page could include more technical details. It's long over due for some updates.
