Good Day,

I have the problem, my country does not have that many dedicated servers providers, but I would like to host a server localized for my country. Since it's located in Europe, there are so many options in France, Germany and other countries. But there are some things I am worried about:
  1. What is Browse community servers algorithm and sorting?
  2. In case if Dedicated server is located in France, does it mean that most of the players will be from France? (In case if they will come from Browse community servers list)
  3. Maybe someone has experience with hosting server in one country (e.g. France) while targeting people from another country (e.g. Greece)?
Any recommendations or additional information regarding this topic is appreciated.

The initial filtering is done using geoip, then they're queried and ordered by latency by default.
