Question about real time and region

Hi everyone, in the supabase docs on real time it is mentioned that rather than having a single server running Realtime and one running the other services, they use a distributed set of clusters around the world. Would that mean that if my supabase instance is in us-east for example then someone from Europe who uses supabase realtime would be using a cluster somewhere in Europe? In other words, they should expect not to suffer from regional latency issues for realtime communication

I believe the user will connect to the realtime server nearest them. Not impacted by your DB or instance.
