Not that I would discourage anyone from contributing to the project to cover 
other costs, but TLS certificates are free, and have been for several years:

If you can listen on port 80, you can grab a cert as simply as shutting down 
the web server for a minute, `pip install certbot`, then this command:

sudo certbot certonly --standalone --preferred-challenges http -d 
www.pygresql.org -d pygresql.org

That'll spit out a certificate.  Dig it out of the config/live directory (or 
reconfigure your web server to point at the paths there) and you'll be set.

If you can point it at a static directory that corresponds to your 
`.well-known` directory, you can set up a cron job to auto-renew every 80 days 
or so, and you don't need to touch it after that.

If your hosting provider is charging you extra for a cert in 2023, you should 
probably get a different provider :).  Read The Docs can host a 
Sphinx-generated website for free, with a custom domain; just go to 
<https://readthedocs.org/dashboard/$YOUR_PROJECT/domains/> and add your domain 
in there.  And they'll take care of the certificate for you too ;).
