I've been working on a fun new project of bringing some smallnet protocols like Misfin, Gemini, nex, and Gopher to Windows XP, and I was able to successfully send a misfin mail to my server on Windows XP (using TLS 1.2)!!!! Unfortunately, I want my server to be TLS 1.3 only becasue misfin pretty much requires the use of client certs., so I will need to get 1.3 supported in the Windows XP client.
I am using Golang 1.10 on Windows XP, which doesn't support TLS 1.3, so I might look into either backporting TLS 1.3 from Golang 1.12 to 1.10, or if that doesn't work, look into using the NSS library, which I believe has TLS 1.3 support.

This might be a crazy idea, but mbedtls (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbedtls) might be a good suggestion for a portable (ANSI C) TLS library, even for Windows. It also got TLS 1.3 support recently.
