The certbot client is pretty awful (it does not cooperate well with automization) but otherwise I agree 100%. HTTPS everywhere and Letsencrypt have been huge boons to security.

Can you expand "it does not cooperate well with automization", because that's not something I've ever heard before.

Some of its commands modify the config files so if you ever need to fix something manually you can very easily end up changing the config and breaking something.

I use dehydrated instead.

Certbot seemed pretty easily automated to me as a guy who just set it up for the first time a few days ago on a new Arch install. The wiki is a pretty great resource if you're still having problems.
