suckless.org now supports TLS using Let's Encrypt. Cloning git repos over HTTPS now works. Some links on the page have been changed to allow both HTTP and HTTPS.

HSTS is not fully working yet. This will be fixed.

The IPv6 AAAA record was added and IPv6 is fully working now.

suckless has many subdomains, these should hopefully all work via TLS. If you see a subdomain without a signed certificate please report it. If you find any broken links on the wiki pages, these can be fixed by anyone.
