Comment #39821542
Certainly weird that wireshark shows TLSv1 while curl shows TLSv1.3. That shouldn't happen unless something interfered with the Client Hello. (or the wireshark version is outdated)…

That's why there's OCSP stapling and OCSP must staple. Ever seen an nginx server fail HTTPS connection exactly once after rotating the certificate? That's nginx lazily fetching the…
