On US15.10 I have nginx:

Problem with IE 11 is still exist. First connection to static page is HTTP/2 and if I do refresh I am getting HTTPS in developers tools. FF and Chrome do not have this problem.
I think (I feel, my intuition tells me :) ) it may lay on self signed certificate. I have create it following the
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7540#section-9.2 requirements.

This certificate is used for both HTTPS and HTTP2.
P.S.: I saw multiple tutorials where nginx plays a role as a simple forward proxy for HTTP and HTTPS, will it work for HTTP/2? Any Idea?
