If you are using our [official install](https://meta.discourse.org/t/142537?silent=true) and have SSL enabled (eg access your site with http **s** ://yoursite.com) then you get HTTP/2

This means we send all the assets more efficiently and that sprites for avatars and various other hacks that were needed in the HTTP/1.1 era are no longer beneficial.
