I'm not English and I don't live in the UK. I also don't follow the British news specifically. I thought he was doing alright by what I picked up left and right, even though that wasn't much.

Personally? No I've never bought a cert before. Given there's free alternatives and it's a homelab it doesn't make sense. Otherwise I've used them on AWS, where ACM also just provides them for free.
What you're saying is that certificate providers will still charge you and provide certificates for a year, but just provide you with N certificates to span that year?
E.g. if the duration is 45 days then they will give you 365/45 certificates ?
I did :( I'm very happy with it too.
