#1350 closed enhancement (wontfix)

Enably http2 by default

Description

It'd be nice if http2 was enabled by default, especially if ssl is specified.

The http2 parameter (1.9.5) configures the port to accept HTTP/2 connections. Normally, for this to work the ssl parameter should be specified as well, but nginx can also be configured to accept HTTP/2 connections without SSL.

While HTTP/2 has advantages over HTTP/1.1 in a number of cases, it also has many disadvantages. There are quite a few use cases, where you should prefer HTTP/1.1 (despite a lot of marketing bullshit about HTTP/2).

Moreover, proper configuration of HTTP/2 isn't only about enabling it. TLS layer must be also carefully configured or your website will be unavailable.

So, no.
