https://www.debian.org/ (and other Debian sites) serve a
Strict-Transport-Security header to enable HSTS.  Please consider
enabling preloading as well; see https://hstspreload.appspot.com/ for
details.  Enabling preloading would ensure that even if a user types
"debian.org" into their browser, the very first request from that
browser will use HTTPS rather than HTTP.

Thanks,

Unfortunately we can't do that because they only allow top-level
domains to be preloaded and not all debian.org subdomains support
https (and some never will, like nossl.people.debian.org). If that
requirement were to be relaxed then we could get added to the preload
list.

It looks like that requirement is still present a decade later.
