Hello everyone. Need some opinions here. Does it worth all the trouble to make things like jellyfin and immich run with HTTPS for services that are only accesible in the LAN? I ask it 'cause, as far as I know, there is no way to put a valid certificate like let’s encrypt for a service that is not accessible from the net and I don’t plan to buy a certificate for myself. But I have some trouble with the rest of my family having issue with their browsers complaining about the lack of https every time a browser is updated. So, what would be the best solution?


IIRC for my setup it’s a bit of both. My DNS API key is scoped to only handle the specific subdomain updates instead of my entire DNS account.
I still use a wildcard for that subdomain for non-kubernetes systems, but the cert plugins for kubes is excellent at handling a LE cert per lan fqdn.
This was my biggest reason to move to Let’s Encrypt. I have a Hashicorp Vault instance in my homelab for secrets and I tried using it for an internal CA (like how the lab at work is set up), but trying to get on every device and add the full Vault chain to each individual system’s trust store was massive pain in the ass.
