What do you mean? Are you saying you can't serve content via QUIC with a certificate issued by lets say letsencrypt certbot?

Self-signed certs in general are a pain in the ass with Chrome. It's only a matter of time before they're disallowed entirely. With QUIC requiring TLS self-signed certificates will only get more difficult to use if not impossible.

You can use tools like certbot to get a working cert without "approval from a corporate CA". It isn't a selfsigned cert.
