The next pit stop is finding a successful QUIC client which I already tried all the browsers and failing to find any of them working for QUIC as of now(I tested these browsers with QUIC enabled websites).

As of now, I am unable to see chrome/Firefox loading localhost or 127.0.0.1/ pages with the configs mentioned in your wiki.

See https://quic.nginx.org/README for an up to date
nginx.conf example and known to work clients.
You may first ensure the client is working correctly by trying
a public HTTP/3 server such as quic.nginx.org; see also
https://github.com/quicwg/base-drafts/wiki/Implementations

HTTP semantics such as status codes doesn't differ between protocol versions.

It using HTTP/1.1 (for whatever reasons).
Usually that means a failure to negotiate HTTP/3.
