Since the advent of LetsEncrypt, ACME, and Caddy I haven't thought about SSL/TLS for more than about an hour per year, and that's only because I forget the steps required to setup auto-renewal. I pay nothing, I spend a tiny amount of time dealing with it, and it works brilliantly.
I'm not sure why many people are still dealing with legacy manual certificate renewal. Maybe some regulatory requirements? I even have a wildcard cert that covers my entire local network which is generated and deployed automatically by a cron job I wrote about 5 years ago. It's working perfectly and it would probably take me longer to track down exactly what it's doing than to re-write it from scratch.
For 99.something% of use cases, this is a solved problem.
