Would love to see it. I'm a paid user and generally love Kagi. Would also love to see a German server for better ping and response-time, as my fellows said.

Check https://gcpping.com to see if there would be meaningful gain compared to what we already have (Netherlands and London)

Vlad for some reason I keep getting onto europe-west2 (London), even though Netherlands would be faster and closer to me. I don't think I've ever seen a different server on Kagi.

This is the traceroute after it leaves my ISP:

Same thing here. Kagi always dials me in London, although according to my tests the Netherlands would also be faster.
