Give those domains their own let's encrypt certificate?
Why is your domain HSTS preloaded?
Google is the registry that owns the rights to the TLD. They require all of the domains they control to have HSTS preload enabled.
Then yeah, VPN or not, you're going to need to enable TLS. What's the issue with giving your subdomains a certificate?
I am fairly new to self hosting and just wanted to know if this was a big enough deal that I should just get a domain that doesn't require HSTS preload. It's one thing to tinker with an IP address on a local network for some unimportant project; it's just intimidating to try it for real using a domain and hosting my own data.
I'm just a little nervous tbh. Thanks for the help!
Not much to be nervous about, you can't fuck it up anymore than it already is since the HSTS is preloaded ;) ACME/Let'sEncrypt is pretty easy to setup
