SSL without putting traffic through Cloudflare.
Keep your host. One TXT record. Universal SSL not required.
The problem
Cloudflare Universal SSL is free if you proxy through Cloudflare. That is a DNS/CDN decision, not “just a certificate.”
The docstoc way
docstoc issues LE on your hostname without becoming your CDN.
How docstoc compares
- No orange-cloud requirement
- You keep nameservers if you want
- Same Let’s Encrypt trust
- Bundled workspace
- Stay on Cloudflare if you already want the proxy
