HTTP/3
add HTTP/3
Repeatedly we're seeing questions on when http/3 will be implemented. http/3 is available in the experimental branch of Nginx, called "main line". This is not a branch that is "stable". Plesk only offers stable software versions for the utmost reliability you can get as reliability is much more important than speed. A fast website is of no use if its webserver crashes or the protocol doesn't work as expected in all cases. Plesk does not offer experimental features. The stable version of Nginx that supports http/3 is expected to become available in April 2024. This is when it makes sense for Plesk to also offer http/3.
From articles that foster the hype about http/3, it sounds as if it can increase a website's speed incredibly much. On average, on real website tests by several reknown sources, the acceleration has been seen at around 0.2 to 0.3 s/page, typically around 12 % improvement compared to http/2, but it depends on the actual website content. Most website owners will be able to increase the speed of their sites dramatically more by reviewing the scripts/plugins/themes they use, because most issues of slow websites are caused by bad software.
If you comment here that http/3 is a "critical feature" (as we've seen many such comments), please also argue, why this is such a critical feature.

Please add the support of nginx HTTP/3

Pablo stop posting useless comments. HTTP3 doesn't exists for Apache and there are no plans for it. it's only Litespeed or Nginx.

Please avoid useless comments that don't add anything to discussion, just vote and wait for updates. This idea currently has 613 votes, and all the voters get notification about new comments. Most of them useless. Please stop.

@admin while i agree that the function needs to be stable before you implement them is not a real discussion point. But if the branch gets stable in April 2024 thats now 2 months away its time to start coding and implement this. There should not be major development that would radically change the system. So by starting now it could be released when HTTP/3 becomes stable and released as such. That would also mean we get the request asap instead of years from now.

I agree with ADMIN's stance that most degradation is due to hillbilly programming. For those of us who do write modern, highly performant solutions, it's not wasted! Any feature which will reduce response times and (presumably) reduce server resources is a critical feature. I await April 2024!

Wait a minute, since when Plesk = Nginx?
If that's the case, it would be nice to let people know.I mean, I don't use Nginx and I'm not the only one I'm sure.
One could even make the case for OpenLitespeed, but for what?
You don't hear your clients and just go ahead and build useless stuff like that sitejet thing.It's easy to understand.
How could you make money on stuff like HTTP/3 or Varnish?
The same things which are on the top requests.And for what's worth, HTTP/3 and Nginx are already equivalent on users:
https://www.wappalyzer.com/technologies/web-servers/nginx/
https://www.wappalyzer.com/technologies/miscellaneous/http-3/Wondering how popular it has to be to make it on Plesk.
But hey, it's almost that time of the year. January. Where you bump the price every single time for no reason at all. -

As described in the article, 12% more speed of http3 compared to http2 is a lot for just activating something in a web server / web proxy like a *.so / module!
So I've been wanting this feature for a long time ~2021, because from then on this feature will soon be standard at Cloudflare.
Http3 will replace Http2, since it is simply the first big player to support it.I've known Plesk since version 8.x, although I technically know how things work under Linux. I love Plesk because the interface simplifies many things and the customizing has also improved a lot.
What do you think of Plesk's idea of offering Nginx in the installer with http3 (experimental) and once with http2 (stable)?

I hope to be implemented as a free feature but not as paid feature...

Why not just add a package in the Nginx experimental installer?

"nginx-1.25.0 mainline version has been released, featuring experimental HTTP/3 support." (c) nginx news/changelog
Usually, Plesk uses stable versions of products. Currently, HTTP/3 in the nginx is in "mainline" branch only (not "stable"). It means, when the nginx "stable" version be released, it makes sense to bring support in Plesk.
