> If you're still using HTTP 1.x

Not sure why it was phrased that way but...isn't everybody?

I know that HTTP/2 is released and browsers support it, but I'm fairly certain that next to nobody is actually doing anything with it.

Google, FB, Youtube, Wikipedia, and HN :) use HTTP2.

I also use HTTP2 at work, and on every personal project. It's supported by every browser [1], and comes with a slew of benefits. It's usually trivial to set up, if you want to give it a shot.

It's getting rolled out in a lot of places. I think adoption is somewhere around 17% depending on how it's measured. I started using it for my personal website and it was really easy, the only part I missed was setting a cron job to reconfigure the web server whenever cert renewal went through.
