would anyone use it though? Isn't this the same as launching a instagram clone a couple of years ago. It's not a challenge to build but your a clone and presumably don't have the clout to get teens to even see it let alone use it.

They have a built in command for their 'certbot' cli now that you can use to have your certificates update automatically.
(It's been a bit sinse I went through it but I think it may be as simple as a extra flag in the command to generate the inital cert)

I see often that people complain all the links submitted here don't work with noscript/in private mode/ etc.
Today I was purchasing a ticket and discovered that greyhound is a idol to look up to. They are able to operate an entire booking process without JS, in private browsing mode, on Firefox!.
As a web developer myself, definitely guilty of building web apps that could have easily been scriptless. I see greyhound's site as a marvel most webdevs can work to be more like.
This of course is all really just hate for the terrible amtrak.com booking system.
