HTTP/3 (QUIC) not detectable in Chrome Canary with --enable-quic --quic-version=h3-23

DNS & Network
#1

Cloudflare activated HTTP/3 (QUIC) on one of my domains.

I have enabled HTTP/3 (QUIC) for the domain

Downloaded Chrome Canary browser for Win 10 64 bit.

Added the following in the target field (by accessing Chrome Canary.exe properties)
“C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe” --enable-quic --quic-version=h3-23

Enabled the support for HTTP/3 (QUIC) in Chrome://flags/

Visited the website and looked at the developer tools > network tap > protocol > it is mostly h2 or http/1.1 for all resources except Google resources which are http/2+quic/46

Tried for https://blog.cloudflare.com/ too and no luck.

No http/2+quic/46, only h2 or http/1.1

#2

see https://blog.cloudflare.com/http3-the-past-present-and-future/

Note that due to how HTTP/3 is negotiated between the browser and the server, HTTP/3 might not be used for the first few connections to the domain, so you should try to reload the page a few times.

#3

Actually I reloaded over 50 times.

#4

i didn’t have to do that step for it to work, so maybe reverse that

#5

Wasn’t able to get it on Cloudflare.com, but got it on my own https://judge.sh first try (but not on the first request due to how H3 negotiates itself as said above)

#6

Yeah, I have set it to ‘default’ but still the same result. I’m wondering why.

#7

Try canary browser with http/3 flags enabled --enable-quic --quic-version=h3-23 on other cloudflare http/3 enabled sites to verify it isn’t a problem with your browser/pc

#8

The browser doesn’t seem to show http/2+quic/46 for all the websites listed above.

Both in Incognito mode and normal mode of Chrome Canary

(with “C:\Users\Name\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe” --enable-quic --quic-version=h3-23) on target field of Chrome Canary.exe properties.

yeah could be Chrome canary related as it’s still experimental and needs development over time

custom built curl with HTTP/3 support verifies HTTP/3 h3-23 draft though
