I think it’s a good idea, everyone should be automating this anyway.

    Those emails have warned me something was pooched in advance many times. I do find them useful.

    Sad to see them go, but nice they mention an alternative.

      Pretty much all monitoring solutions on the market track cert expiration nowadays. I get an alert when any of my certs have <5 days left

        What monitoring solution do you use? I need to set something up for my own projects but haven’t gotten around to it. Any experience with Nagios?

          If you have the time to spare (a few weeks perhaps, if coming from zero) to experiment and read, Prometheus and Grafana offers a lot and can be really flexible. I use a pretty simple bash script that scrapes my desired https endpoints and writes out the results to a file Prometheus (node-exporter) understands, and from there I can write alert rules in Grafana to fire off notices by email or slack.
