The State of HTTP in 2022
HTTP/1.1 support is the last bastion between the web and complete corporate control. Once the megacorp browsers and man in the middle companies like Cloudflare drop HTTP/1.1 we will no longer be able to host a website without the continued approval of a third party corporation. HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 implemenations <i>require</i> the use of CA based TLS.<p>Just to preempt misunderstanding: HTTPS is great. But HTTPS only, with no option for HTTP is very much worse than HTTP+HTTPS for human people. Despite being great for for profit companies and institutions.
