We remove support for this OpenSSL version from curl in June 2026.
## OpenSSL-QUIC
OpenSSL-QUIC is what we call the curl QUIC backend that uses the OpenSSL QUIC
stack.
- It is slower and uses more memory than the alternatives and is only
experimental in curl.
- It gets little attention from OpenSSL and we have no expectation of the
major flaws getting corrected anytime soon.
- No one has spoken up for keeping it
- curl users building with vanilla OpenSSL can still use QUIC through the
means of ngtcp2
We remove the OpenSSL-QUIC backend in March 2026.
## Past removals
