I wrote another blog post for the Prossimo blog about how we improve the unhappy path for rustls users:

Also huge shoutout to @djc.ochtman.nl and the other rustls + rcgen contributors, who made adding TLS support easier than rolling something much worse on my own :)

This is most likely another problem we've been hitting or that I know about. I've had someone ask me for help about Rustls failing with the same error when connecting to Windows Server 2025 - TLS 1.3 negotiated followed by a TLS handshake failure. Disabling TLS 1.3 makes it work with TLS 1.2

HN chat on SSL/TLS stacks debated OpenSSL's performance & design vs alternatives. Focus on efficiency, architecture choices, and libraries like Rustls/AWS-LC. #TLS 1/5

I wrote a blog post about rustls performance on the server for the Prossimo blog; rustls comes out comparing well to the alternatives, and we’re still improving it!

reqwest、rustlsがwrapされすぎててwork aroundを見つけるまで手間取ったけど、ClientBuilder::danger_accept_invalid_certs()で無理やりServerCertVerifierを書き換えてサーバー証明書のverificationをスキップする荒技でとりあえず手元のコードは動かせた。

For more background from the rustls maintainer who found this:

Ouch. #rustls has gone MSRV 1.71, and I had hoped ureq 3.x could stay on 1.65 for now.

Please reconsider bumping MSRV to 1.71 · Issue #2239 · rustls/rustls
Describe the bug The recently released version 0.23.18 bumped the MSRV from 1.63 to 1.71 in a patch release. This was done in #2220 with seemingly no strong necessity, IIUC mostly to adopt the let ...

Memory safe Rustls is now outperforming both OpenSSL and BoringSSL. So proud of what this team is doing. www.memorysafety.org/blog/rustls-...

Such great work from the Rustls devs.

One (Rust-friendly) Debian developer mentioned that Debian’s rustls packager is someone they prefer to avoid. Until recently, the newest rustls version available in Debian was 18 months out of date…

Just linked up rustls and bb8-postgres a few days ago. You wouldn't expect how much you learn doing a bit of drudgework, and how many interesting insights are just a little bit beside the beaten path :D Good times
