Challenge we solve
How we solve HTTP/2 Not Implemented
In our experience, HTTP/2 not implemented means the server is still serving pages over HTTP/1.1 only, without support for the HTTP/2 protocol. This is usually a server or hosting configuration gap, either the web server version predates HTTP/2 support or the module/config flag enabling it was never turned on. Without HTTP/2's multiplexing (parallel requests over one connection) and header compression, pages with many assets load slower than they would otherwise, which affects both user experience and page speed scoring.

Why this happens (and how we fix it)
In our experience, HTTP/2 requires both a server version and a configuration flag that support it, and on older hosting stacks or legacy Apache/Nginx builds that were never upgraded, the protocol simply isn't available no matter how the site itself is coded. It also happens on shared hosting environments where the site owner has no control over server level protocol settings, so even a modern, well built site can be stuck serving HTTP/1.1 because of decisions made entirely at the infrastructure layer. Migrations to a new host sometimes fix this automatically, but just as often carry the old configuration forward if nobody explicitly checks for it.
What it costs you while it goes unfixed
In our experience, without HTTP/2's multiplexing, the browser can only run a set number of requests it can run in parallel over a single connection, so pages with many separate assets, images, scripts, stylesheets, load them in a more serialized, slower pattern than they would otherwise. The protocol's header compression is lost too, adding overhead to every single request the browser makes to your server. For any site with more than a handful of assets per page, which is most sites, this shows up as a quantifiable, avoidable tax on load time that a one time server configuration change would eliminate.
