Free DDNS with Cloudflare and a Cronjob

Parent did not say it was challenging.

I find fiddling with LE tedious because it has to be repeated too often.

certbot and crontab needs to be setup just once, to solve cert problem

HTTPS when used in the ubiquitous manner it is now always strikes me as unnecessary complexity and tedium, and reasonings like yours addressing them with even more complexity and tedium.

Whatever happened to KISS?

It happened that the last S changed from "stupid" to "secure". If I use HTTPS I can safely enough connect to my home services through an open cafe Wifi, for example

I’ve been using caddy for a year which does everything for you. Basically nginx/haproxy but with https built-in via LE, no fiddling about with cert files and brittle LE scripts, also supports subdomains equally easily.
