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?

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

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 guessing

yeah 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

they would cost extra though, just wanna be transparent

would be worth it for me if it prevents any downtime due to ip ratelimiting
