Unfortunately this makes life difficult for us.

We run a whitelabelled platform with tens of thousands of users - it's hard enough to get many people to understand setting a CNAME record (vs just setting an A record). Requiring them to update a TXT record once would be a big enough challenge, but doing it every 30-90 days is never going to happen. The smaller customers would probably be happy with us hosting their DNS, but we're not going to do that - the larger ones wouldn't.

TLS-SNI being gone and DNS being unworkable means we're left with HTTP only.
