I had the same issue. The issue was a security one https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-11840 which required a breaking change to fix so their options where leave everyone vulnerable but could compile or break anyone that uses this code and fix it. I think they made the right choice.

Also golang.org/x/crypto is not a core library so doesn't actually fall under the compatibility guarantee but they seem to try their best not to break it.

Had the great firewall of china block one of the sites I was building for a customer once many years ago. It could only do it for http and not https so assuming it reads the request from the client works out its a http request to an unauthorized IP and sends the reset packet. You cant read the payload for https so didn't know to send the rst packet i'm assuming. Took a while and some playing with wireshark to work out what was going wrong.

Spoke to someone in the Datacenter we where hosting in and they got us adding to some goverment whitelist and it all started working again.

That is yet to be seen. https://www.reddit.com/r/cpp/comments/f94zcr/would_you_use_m...

They have the money and resources to create a competing compiler that does it's own ABI and fixes things in the language. If they could get a 5 - 10 % increase in performance would people move ?

nginx is not shipped by RHEL so you are probably pulling from epel. you can also pull the latest stable version directly from nginx's repo http://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html#RHEL-CentOS which has supported http2 since RHEL 7.4 when they released alpn support in openssl.

you can also install the latest version of apache from red hats software collections repo that supports http2 but it throws everything into /opt/rh/rh-httpd24/ which is a bit weird.

They appear to have badly misconfigured Apache so nothing IE related works and all the cipher suites are weak. https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=techempower.c...
