Letsencrypt is under US jurisdiction. Is there a free-er alternative? (sopuli.xyz)

I know that I can simply make my own private certificate authority that only I and my family trust. But is there some public provider like letsencrypt that is in a free-er part of the world than the US?

ZeroSSL costs 180 per year for unlimited 90 day certs. I get the independence from US-based services, but I don't want to drop that kind of money on my toy domains.

    I think you misunderstood something there; they're very explicitely offering free certs.

    I just went 90% through the process (I might need them anyhow later this year), it's like this:
    What you say is a PRO feature, unlimited certs with one account, is not meant as "unlimited in time" but "unlimited number of certs at any given time".

    Yeah, that's what I meant. An unlimited number of 90 day certs, automatically renewable through ACME. That's what Let's Encrypt offers and that's what I'd need in another cert provider.
