Let's Encrypt is amazing, but are there any equally trustworthy alternatives people could switch to if something bad happens to it?
If it begins to enshitify, someone will quickly take up the helm. It's become so core now that someone like Cloudflare would just be like "We do this now."
I think Cloudflare enshittifying is a bigger risk that Let's Encrypt.
