I’m just so annoyed of fighting this all the time.

If I can’t figure this out I’m going to disable all https redirecting and all certificate errors off so I can have some peace

EDIT: I do not wish to manage certificates I do not want to setup private key infrastructure I don’t want to use real internet domain names I don’t want to manually install certificates into browsers after fishing them out of my ephemeral virtual machines

I just want to, add exception for *.lan for https auto redirect and auto-accept self-signed certificates as valid. This is not much to ask.

    Pretty sure there’s not a per-domain setting for that. If you have HTTPS-Only Mode turned on in the settings it will always try to use HTTPS first and present a warning before switching to HTTP.

    If you want to continue using HTTPS you can setup your own CA certificate to sign certificates for your .LAN domain names. All you need to do then is add the CA certificate to your trusted certificates in Firefox and the signed certificate to the device hosting the HTTPS service.

    EDIT: TIL there an exclusion feature. Neat. I didn’t see this on Firefox for Android though. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/https-only-prefs

    Install the cert using settings->privacy->certs. Use server option to download and install the cert

    For https/hrtp as default either ask google for sertings for prefered protocol, type :80 behind address or specify protocol. I believe they changed it to default to https if none is specified a while back

    you should only need to allow this once for each domain/subdomain, surely that can’t be that much of a pain.

    yes that has to be repeated when the certificate changes, but make it with a 2-5 year expiration and it’ll be safer than attempting to disable these security measures for all domains, which would be just very silly and careless

      Once for every VM I create, in every VM I create on every computer in the house Every single time it happens, a frustrating interruption with a probability of losing my train of thought Also this has to work fully offline and without infrastructure My prognosis based on this thread only solution, disable all https certificate checking and http to http redirecting everything else is multi-weekend long cast in the fire
