Timezones going to make that hilarious, probably go back to much longer certs. I like free so I put up with LE. The automated stuff only works on half my servers, the other half I either run without https or I manually install it. Except now I wait until the service stops working, spend 15 minutes debugging why, go to the domain in a browser and see the warning, and then go fix it. Why? LE decided sending 4 emails a year is too many. And let's be real, sending automated emails is expensive. I think AWS charges like $0.50 per email when you use their hosted email sender.

SES? Around $0.0001 per e-mail

Yes, it was facetious, i am jabbing at Let's Encrypt for ceasing email operations.

Assuming 47 day certs they would be saving 500k USD/year just from SES fees with that change.

For a free service, that's a whole lot of money.
