Meanwhile it's 2026 and Greg's own website still doesn't support TLS.

Honestly, until encrypted client hello has widespread support, why bother? I mean I did it for fun the first time and now with caddy its not a lot of effort. But for a personal blog, a completely static site, what benefit do you get from the encryption? Anyone monitoring the traffic will see the domain in clear text anyway. And they'd see the destination IP, which I imagine in this case being one server that has exactly one domain pointed at it.
