To: Admins of tldr.nettime.org

Your server is configured with a reference to a URL on a server with an invalid SSL certificate.

To recreate this;

Fetch https://tldr.nettime.org/.well-known/nodeinfo

At the time of writing this has the following content (prettified):

{
  "links": [
    {
      "rel": "http://nodeinfo.diaspora.software/ns/schema/2.0",
      "href": "https://tldr.bitnik.org/nodeinfo/2.0"
    }
  ]
}

Note the reference to https://tldr.bitnik.org/nodeinfo/2.0 in the href property.

Try and fetch that URL: https://tldr.bitnik.org/nodeinfo/2.0

A well-configured client will refuse to complete the request, because tldr.bitnik.org is sending an SSL certificate that is only valid for tldr.nettime.org.

Please fix this.

I'm not sure if you need to (a) correct the SSL cert used by tldr.bitnik.org, or (b) change the contents of the nodeinfo returned in the original request to link to a server with a valid SSL cert. Either one will do.
