Discord Bot not working on US East but works on other regions
I'm having a very weird problem where my Discord bot won't respond to any slash commands if I set the region of my deployment to US East, but if I set it to EU West or US West it works fine.
The bot doesn't even appear to be logging in.

Solution
my guess would be discord has blocked some of the ips from that region
right, is there any work around other than using another region?
wait, do you see any logs?
I'll see
just putting region back to US East
I don't seem to get anything back on catching errors for bot.login()
but I don't seem to get anything back on the promise either
yeah gotta be discord blocking the ip
where is discord's servers?
so i just put a very basic http fetch into discord.com/api/users/@me and it returned error 429
one of the affected IPs is
35.199.34.245
probably a noisy neighbour on that server im guessingyeah ips are shared so not much railway can do
yeah no worries, just the inevitable.
will swap region for now to US West, but this has been going on for 12+ hours
hopefully railway will be able to offer static ips so you can avoid this in the future
hopefully 🤞
thanks for your help, appreciate it
they would cost extra though, just wanna be transparent
would be worth it for me if it prevents any downtime due to ip ratelimiting
