i wonder if I could configure my browser to accept self-signed certificates?
Would have to be with a very noticable warning. Other than that, it could use TOFU like Gemini.

It almost works like that already.
When you open a page on a server with self-signed cert, it gives you a warning, if you accept it, it adds an exception for that cert — you can see the list in preferences under Privacy & Security → Certificates → View certificates → Servers
@m0xee Does the warning look the same as as an error?
Should be one colour (say, red) for errors and another (say, yellow) for self-signed. Sort of like the way Pixel bootloaders show green for official OS and yellow for unofficial but red for an error (IIRC).

No, it's Mozilla's generic white on #1C1B22 (no idea what the name of this colour is) — but you can make it you way with userContent.css — and I never tried making these myself, but I'm pretty sure you can make an extension that does this — or, look it up, maybe someone already made one 🤷
@m0xee Okay, that's interesting. I tend to use Chromium though because I've heard it has better sandboxing.
