Discussion on: What is HTTP/3 ?

Yeah, but for all intents and purposes, many developers saw gains without having to think about it much. You can't yet rely as much on some of the fancier HTTP/2 stuff, but plenty of CDNs and the like adopted it, giving immediate access to multiplexing, which should have default-helped a lot of developers.

If H/3 just makes things better when available without much implementation burden on the individual developer, should be pretty great. And H/3 seems like a huge leap.

True that!

H/2 is a leap forward and even if it's not 100% supported everywhere it's still something. It's a boon especially for this new wave of JAMstack websites. You can even stop concatenating multiple files into one because of HTTP/2.

Talking about the less fancy features: I wonder if someone could implement a HTTP/2 web server that uses machine learning onto its logs to analyze users patterns and tune server push to maximize client side performance.

Just throwing this out there :D
