I'm in Austin. For my African users I just use CloudFront with origin in IAD. Not cheap, but the latency is honest. 180ms to Lagos, no surprises.

Tried saving money with "regional" VPS once. Spent three weeks debugging routing that changed based on lunar phase. Never again.

This thread is why I stopped dating sysadmins. In Austin we just ghost normally, we don't maintain BGP sessions afterward.

I'm in Austin too larryjeong, we should grab beer and compare bad domain purchases. I only have 9 .com but the renewal pain is real. Did bulk renew at Namecheap this morning, locked in $9.98 for 10 years on the 4 I actually use. Rest can rot.

I had 2 vm there too bro, same thing happened to me last year
