On small screens I often have programs in basically fullscreen, because of the limited space. But the bigger the screen the better you can actually tile it beyond simple half/quarter splits.

TLS doesn't necessarily mean everything is encrypted with FTP, because data and control channel have to be encrypted independently.

See for example https://security.stackexchange.com/a/115565 or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTPS#Secure_data_channel for more detailed explanations.

Most of the time both are encrypted when configuring TLS, but it's not as easy as with IMAP or SMTP where you basically disallow all commands except STARTTLS.

Why TLS-SNI-01 was disabled: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/2018-01-09-issue-with-tl...

Explanation that renewals will be disallowed after 1 year deprecation period: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/march-13-2019-end-of-lif...

And as you seem to be talking about ACMEv1/v2 instead of TLS-SNI-01 (which I originally thought); it will be supported as long as June 2021 in some cases: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for-acm...

ACMEv2 was introduced, because it is much closer to the actual spec. Enforcing this ensures that there are actually ACME implementations out there, instead of proprietary "Let's Encypt ACME" implementations. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8555 https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/blob/master/docs/acme...

To me this seems like a sensible compromise between backwards compatibility and their mission for standardized automated renewals.

I think the author is confusing three things:

* Let's Encrypt - the actual CA

* certbot - probably the mentioned python software

* ACME - the protocol, which had a change in the supported challenges

Also there are alternatives for all three points. There are other CAs implementing ACME, there are other ACME clients and there are still CAs supporting the old 'send an email and click a link' domain validation.

> It's like saying I bought a petrol car but I should have a legal right to fill it up with Diesel or make it work with electricity. It's illogical. The packaging said petrol and so I knownlingly bought petrol.

Though it's not really uncommon to modify a car for autogas or electric. Often it's also possible to change the radio receiver to e.g. one with android car.

I kinda expect the same freedom to modify other products including smartphones.
