Update:
Blocking older HTTP versions used by botnets, such as 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2, as well as implementing other server-side features such as pushing resources and using TLS 1.3, would significantly reduce the success of any DDoS attack.
I'd even say it would make it nearly impossible.

Nearly impossible? I disagree when there are many library support HTTP/3[1]. Bot developer could update their bot while bot owner will simply use different bot.

I'm okay with theymos as our benevolent dictator. Calling him a criminal requires evidence.
Word to the bird, LoyceV.  Not being a computer science major (like many here seem to be), I don't know much about the security/privacy issues involved with using javascript and cloudfare so I'm not too concerned with any of that.
