</span>I think these "a lot" and "many years" are just overestimation based<br>
on the marketing buzz around spdy, http2 and other so-called<br>
innovations:<br>

As you see, spdy penetration is just 6% and it starts to decline.<br>
http/2 is still ~2% but growing super quickly.<br>
<br>
And we do provide 1.8 branch which supports spdy.<br>

</span>As for your request: can you explain how spdy deprecation affects you<br>
personally (not Cloudflare or other).<br>
