Hi @everyone with everything going on today I forgot to post on discord about our EU launch! We have a region in Dublin now! You can start using it immediately, even for folks on the free plan. https://news.convex.dev/we-finally-got-our-eu-visa/ Stay tuned for more regions but also stay tuned for more infra improvements where we improve latency for teams no matter where their servers are located.
