I agree - I find if you pick the "mainstream" regions like IAD you get close to 100% uptime, like what you see from my 3rd-party status page here: https://flyio.onlineornot.com/

Once you start deploying in SIN/CDG etc you start to get really weird instability (and this is on v2 machines).

One of fly's main features is global distribution so it's kinda silly if you have to avoid SIN and CDG
You can use hkg and ams instead :)
I haven't been able to bring up a clustered Elixir server in hkg without experiencing netsplits every 5-10 minutes. ewr, ord, and cdg have been totally reliable.
