Use something like no-ip, you can get a domain for free and renewing it every 30 days with a few clicks is much easier then managing a CA.
The only downside is the TLD but if you don't care to much about how your domain name looks it really is the best option.
I use no-ip with letsencrypt, the LE bot does the certificate stuff for me, I use a single domain with different ports for each service and no-ip sends an email every 30 days to reconfirm the domain. Simple and easy.
I would not like to use a public domain for my internal traffic, even if the traffic is not routed outside. This is more of a personal choice than me looking for the easiest technical solution. I do own a domain, but I'll keep that specifically for elements facing the internet.
Thanks!
