About 30% percent of traffic to Cloudflare uses HTTP/3 [0], so it seems pretty popular already. For comparison, this is 3× as much traffic as HTTP/1.1.

and then cloudflare converts that to http/2 or even 1.1 for the backend

    So? Those protocols work fine within the reliable low latency network of a datacenter.

      I'd even go as far as claiming that on reliable wired connections (like between cloudflare and your backend) HTTP/2 is superior to HTTP/3. Choosing HTTP/3 for that part of the journey would be a downgrade
