Is Chrome still supporting SPDY?

Question

I read Chrome dropped SPDY support in 2016: https://blog.chromium.org/2016/02/transitioning-from-spdy-to-http2.html

However some requests in devtools still show SPDY as the protocol:

Is it really SPDY or it's devtool's display issue? If it's the latter then what's the actual protocol?

Answer 1

Protocol being displayed as spdy was a bug in Chrome devtools. It is fixed in Chrome 71 (now in beta).

All the occurrences of spdy in earlier versions of Chrome (51-70) actually mean h2.
