Insecure / Unencrypted Logins

[Evan]

Working with Adam on a plan here. I'll hold off on purchasing a cert unless someone has a cheap resource for them because we may not need with what Adam has proposed.

LetsEncrypt offers free SSL certs
https://letsencrypt.org/
https://www.sslforfree.com/

Its by the Linux foundation and backed by Mozilla, Cisco,Amamai, Facebook , etc,  so its not some sketchy provider.

first priority should be getting ssl set up on the current site. That's a "shouldn't be online at all without it" kind of thing.
Longer term, Im still willing to set up a discourse server if there is interest.  (there was not last I mentioned it). Im sure adam could do it as well.
Using in production will require reasonable hosting cost,  but probably more than what you are paying now.
