Kinda sad 😢
Knowing beforehand that I have to dedicate more time to debugging the way certbot gets run from crontab was really nice.

E-ew! 😖
Too many reminders on too many different days — and they would get triggered even if certbot succeeded.
Of course there are other services that check your cert validity, I think they've been giving a link to one in the email about shutting down their notifications, but…
It would probably be easier to implement sending notifications if certbot fails 😅

OMFG, in my latest case it turned out certbot was failing due to machine hosting Plenomer being to-o slo-ow and nginx had been failing to reload the configs in time to respond to the challenge properly, adding "--nginx-sleep-seconds=5" resolved the issue 🤣
I was THIS 🤏 close to just giving up figuring what's wrong with the config and resorting to webroot method 😅
