Yes, all this. Although it drives me nuts that people consider SSL to be a deterrent to load times when the average page is as bloated as it is...
But yeah, LetsEncrypt made SSL free, and for us, AWS's free auto-renewing certificates were the thing that made it easy to not have to worry about certificates anymore and to use them gratuitously.
Edit: looking forward to all the Dreamhosts of the world making LetsEncrypt-based SSL standard on even their cheapest plans.
