Yes, Cloudflare, Hong Kong is absolutely the server closest to me in Germany.
maybe the germany server was down
Even an American server would be closer than Hong Kong, though
Could be that when a server is down Cloudflare just routes to a random one instead of using the closest server
I know I’m a day late but apparently theres also a server in Vienna so then that would mean that one was down as well (apparently thats the closest server near me over here in Hungary)
I think Cloudflare has servers all over Europe, all closer than Hong Kong
