@stefano I'm curious, do you have some way to serve content based on location? I mean, have the user connect your server that is closest to them?

@noexec yes, I do. I'm using powerdns and it will give you the nearest (active) IP address. It usually works.
I've described the process here: https://it-notes.dragas.net/2024/08/26/building-a-self-hosted-cdn-for-bsd-cafe-media/ -

I used to be hostmaster among other things for a small ISP back in the day, responsible for the primary and secondary DNS servers running Bind 8. It had no functionality like this, so I find it fascinating how things have changed and improved and like learning about it.

@noexec I agree. Those features are great to improve the DNS experience. A reverse proxy can be a SPOF but having this kind of fail over at DNS level is great.
