HTTPS on by default

as of now, I am glad to announce that HTTPS is the default protocol that will be employed for accessing this website.

in a world where HTTP is being deprecated by major browsers due to lack of encryption, I was forced to adopt HTTPS to keep the site going...
however, the lack of a certificate hindered me from doing so.

at first I thought this would never be possible (since No-IP does not grant certificates), but afterwards I found out I could use certbot for the certificate (even under a subdomain), so it seems to be good.

therefore HTTPS is on by default, and the previous protocol is no longer in use.
