There is a long-standing dispute between Cloudflare and Germany's biggest ISP, Telekom, which results in terrible peering for Cloudflare free traffic for Telekom customers here. Sites on the Cloudflare Pro plan are not affected by this somehow.
If the author is a Telekom customer, then they would absolutely see 100ms+ improvements.

- DeepSeaTortoise 2y agoSeems like they upgraded their abysmal 40Gbps peering, tho. https://www.peeringdb.com/net/196 https://www.peeringdb.com/net/196
- oynqr 2y agoDTAG is just terrible. Having a whitelist of allowed mail providers they deal with? Check. Abusing peering to squeeze more cash? Check. Advocating for censorship on the Internet? Check.
