Did you have a good look at how the internet evolved in the last 15 years?
The IETF can invent HTTP/23 with DNS-over-whatever tomorrow, that doesn't change anything about the general state of the internet, which can best be summarized as a "burning pile of poop".
Do you really need any examples of how broken everything is? Do you really wonder that people have "grimdark fantasies" about what the "next cool web feature" will bring to us?
there is such a poisonous mentality that has taken root, that is popular. no one at the ietf shares these delusional fears, & it's not because the ietf is a bought out shadow puppet. it's because in reality http3 brings what http2 brought but technically better which brought what http1 brought but technically better.
