I know that I can simply make my own private certificate authority that only I and my family trust. But is there some public provider like letsencrypt that is in a free-er part of the world than the US?

I assume you are correct and anybody can get a cert (with max. 1 wildcard presumably) for (again presumably) one site for free?
This @state_electrician is very insistent; do you have any idea what exactly costs €15/month (according to them)? What could they mean by “LE (LetsEncrypt) equivalent”?
They seem to claim that the free cert offer is only for a limited time?
edit:
no, they explained themselves. Apparently LE gives as many free certs for as many domains as you want to any one user.
I am referring to this: https://zerossl.com/pricing
Under the section “ZeroSSL Certificates” it says for the free tier “3 90-Day Certificates” and for the cheapest paid option at 15 Euro per month “∞ 90-Day Certificates” (∞ being the infinity sign). The latter is what I currently get for free from Let’s Encrypt. So to get the same kind of service, I would have to pay ZeroSSL about 180 Euro a year. Which is something I am currently not willing to do, as all my ~40 certificates are only for myself.
I think there is some confusion because I have had more than 4 domains at one time and they did not complain about it. 2 of them were wildcards. Possibly a “90 day certificate” is something specific that they are offering?
Wait, you’re getting free SSL certs that don’t have to be renewed (albeit automated) every 90 days?
I’d be interested in that too; I’ve always avoided ZeroSSL so far because I have 80 (sub)domains. I manage 7 root domains as wildcards and 6 as individual certificates—that always sounded like it would be unaffordable for me.
