My experience with Freenode/Libra Chat is that they either don't implement geo DNS or don't do a very good job of it. I'm on the US west coast and lookups to irc.libera.chat often return servers in Europe.
Edit: Double checking Libra Chat's website I see that they have added regional hostnames so I guess that's their solution.
- pvtmert 5y agoif they're using aws route53, your isp needs to support edns. otherwise, your netblock might have been falsely advertised in the dns provider's geoip database. (eg. maxmind)
- pushrax 5y agoThey're using Cloudflare. When I resolve them from the east coast, I got a San Francisco server once and a server in Budapest once. They have a server in Toronto, Ashburn, Montreal, and other places that are closer. I know geodns works here since I use it for some of my own deployments.
