You need a certificate for the domain you are going to serve of course. You can get one with ACME DNS challenges pretty easily (I have my clients set up a CNAME for the _acme-challenge subdomain of their domain).

I worded that poorly.

Yes, that is of course correct. But that means that your clients have to trust you without technical safeguards, that you will not use this to get for certificates for purposes other than XMPP.

Which, in my mind, is a problem if the domain is not used just for XMPP, but lets say for a website as well.
