We also need to keep in mind, at least when we are talking security wise, I have never actually heard of anyone who has gotten their cert/keys stolen.

It happens on servers, sure, but they are always online and running software that can have a myriad of vulnerabilities.

People forget that the access required to steal a cert/key, means you already have an attacker on your local system. At which point your cert/key is the least of your problems.

Is that's safe to use same identity certificate for different services? Usually, asymmetric encryption means I share data signed with own private key + remote public key. Don't remember where exactly but saw the recommendation to use different certs for different hosts in Geminispace. Maybe that's because of privacy reasons only..
