I really wanted to like and use NextDNS but my latency was ~200ms vs maybe 10-40ms for my ISP resolver. I'm fine with paying a bit of a latency price for the extra features and privacy, but not that much. And I'm located in Toronto, not somewhere remote.



Looks like a case of bad anycast routing, as we have a PoP in Toronto! It happens and is usually easily fixable, can you talk to us via the chat on our website (or at support@nextdns.io)?

A map of our network for anyone interested:

I figured I'd activate it again and test it first... and of course it's way better now! Consistently getting around 40ms now so I'll keep it enabled and try again :)


Definitely try again! I'm also in Toronto and I haven't had latency problems.
