"TLS" is not making the protocol super complicated

My fucking ass

First I tried rust-native-tls, but it had *no* support for client certificates.

Then I tried rustls, this time things looked a lot more promising. In general I actually quite like the way that it has been designed.

But as it turned out, it relies on webpki, which has no support for v1 certificates, which are the default certificates used by Lagrange (and probably others).

At this point I feel like I am better off just implementing the TLS protocol myself (or maybe abandoning the idea of doing it in rust and just going back to C)

So I made a certificate for this site, but I set it to run out in 5 days. What then? Is access to my account just lost forever. Seems kinda weird.
