Unless you are on Windows where the server can't be accessed because it uses a pretty limited set of TLS cipher suites. Thus the majority of GnuPG encryption users are out of luck. On Windows we use the ntbtls library which has not yet support for the GCM mode and we hesitate to add this to 2.2 because GCM has not been approved for the use of GnuPG in restricted communication (VS-NfD). It is not a technical problem but a policy one which we first need to sort out. Even with the fear of padding oracles on CBC and old as well as a forthcoming attack, the restriction of the server to use only GCM based cipher modes is not helpful.
