Edge and Chrome browsers are giving warnings that the AutoHotkey website is not secure. No https.

Most of the time, for me, the forum is hardly usable.

Still taking about 90 seconds to navigate from post to post for me. But that's an improvement at least ...

I mean do I have to say that it's relevant because it's a reflection of widespread internet website issues because of certificates starting on the 30th due to major changes in the way certificate authorities restrict older versions of TLS. is it not obvious that this is just this Facebook thing the Bank of America thing other websites having major issues all around this time is it not obvious how they're related

Not back to normal on my Apple mobile devices. Still showing bad certificate date -- expired on 9/29/21 even though the certificate shows valid date range of 10/2/21 to 12/30/21.

My iPad is updated to 15.01, but my iPhone is too old to get it (will finally be upgrading now that the new ones are out), so that's on 12.5.5, which is the latest version for it.

For the past few days I experienced frequently the forum being inaccessible.

Not back to normal. Edge and Chrome still showing red not secure warnings.

I think it's a bad look, as AutoHotkey already gets undeserved heat by various parties. I can only imagine what some are thinking when they come to a not secure website with warning pages or at least red coloring. I'm sure the veterans of the website will be more tolerant, but not sure what new and casuals would think of it.

@SOTE this is not in our control. this is entirely external. i have literally done every thing possible. yet some ppl see incorrect certificate warnings while others do not. i cannot do anything about the CA performance. it isnt just us.
