On: Let's Encrypt has issued its first million certificates

[merpnderp]

That would be nice, but with it being so easy to get a certificate, you could just add a new SSL cert when you add the new subdomain.

[currysausage → merpnderp]

If there only wasn't the limit of 5 certificates per domain per week [1].

[jhardy54 → currysausage]

When it comes to rate-limiting, example.com and foobar.example.com are treated as completely separate domains.

[currysausage → jhardy54]

That would be pretty awesome, but it's not how I interpret the following: "This limit measures certificates issued for a given combination of Public Suffix + Domain (a 'registered domain')."

Do you have a source?

[mholt → jhardy54]

I do not believe this is true. That rate limit applies to second-level domains and all subdomains.

[ris → jhardy54]

This is not true. I know from experience.
