Genuinely curious, why disable HTTP2? Your web browsing must be awfully slow sans multiplexing.

- gkbrk 4y ago> why disable HTTP2 Because it adds nothing to improve my browsing experience, and reducing the number of protocols supported by my browser from 3 to 1 also reduces the attack surface. > Your web browsing must be awfully slow sans multiplexing. And yet it's not slowed down at all. How many different resources must a web page use before it feels slow on a connection pool of keep-alive TCP sockets? Maybe people visit some wild experimental web pages with hundreds of blocking <src> tags that are not bundled/minified? Either way, my experience is it doesn't slow anything down when I use both websites (forums, resources, youtube, social media) and web apps (banking, maps, food delivery etc).
- dboreham 4y agoPerhaps your experience is the same, but it may impose extra load on middleboxes that track TCP flows.
