> run a CA

> easier than remembering IP addresses

idk, the 192.168.0 part has been around since forever. The rest is just a matter of .12 for my laptop, .13 for the one behind the telly, .14 for the pi, etc.

Every time I try to "run a CA", I start splitting hairs.

No, what I'm saying is

1. Running a CA is more work than just setting up certbot for IP addresses, but not that much more

And that enables you to

2. Remember only domain names, which is easier than ip addresses.

I guess if you're ipv4 only and small it's not much benefit but if you have a big or bridged network like wonderLAN or the promised LAN it's much better.
