On .LAN domains, how to stop firefox switching to https (when it's not available) and stop complaining about self-signed certificates when it is available ? (lemmy.ml)

I'm just so annoyed of fighting this all the time.

If I can't figure this out I'm going to disable all https redirecting and all certificate errors off so I can have some peace

EDIT: I do not wish to manage certificates I do not want to setup private key infrastructure I don't want to use real internet domain names I don't want to manually install certificates into browsers after fishing them out of my ephemeral virtual machines

I just want to, add exception for *.lan for https auto redirect and auto-accept self-signed certificates as valid. This is not much to ask.

For the certificate errors, just add a root CA of your own making.
Disabling auto-https, no idea. Maybe fix the source?

Yeah I was about to say, just do https? It's not like getting a certificate is still a big deal in modern times, hasn't in years.

My router doesn't have an HTTPS control page.
Sometimes frustrating.
