Fair enough, I will contact the web site maintainer. However, regarding
this:

1) I searched high, low, and sideways, and couldn't find any
documentation of how to override this via a config file or environment
variable. Regarding command line, I imagine that is going to be
different for each program, and I did manage to figure out how to do it
for curl, but it took a huge amount of educated effort that the vast
majority of users are not going to be able to figure out.

2) I don't know what deb the man pages for the OpenSSL API are in, but
whichever one it is, it's not in the package install set that most
people get. That man page is not available on my system, for example.

Title:
  openssl in 20.04 can't connect to site that was fine in 19.10 and is
  fine in Chrome and Firefox

Status in openssl package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  openssl in Ubuntu 20.04 (focal) refuses to connect to a web site that
  openssl in Ubuntu 19.10 (eoan), Chrome, and Firefox are all happy to
  connect to.

  Reproduce with: `curl -v https://www.toodledo.com/'

  or: `openssl s_client -connect www.toodledo.com:443`

  or: `python3 -c 'import requests;
  requests.get("https://www.toodledo.com/";)'`

  or: `wget https://www.toodledo.com/`

  These worked in Ubuntu 19.10 and don't work in 20.04.

  I've tried all sorts of things to debug this further and I've just run
  into walls. I hope someone who understands more about this stuff will
  be able to figure it out.
