There's even a built-in answer "Why can I not connect to chess.com but I can to every other website," and the article mentions this. That seems kind of unrealistic to expect to be connected to the entire world of chess.com players via one server (although I'm not speaking on a topic I'm familiar with). I'm hoping more will come. Will there be more at some point? Or a better way to optimize?
Disclosure: prior to the last year or so I never had a single connectivity issue with chess.com. My signal is always full bars according to the site, but it still breaks. It just seems weird.
That's not entirely true anymore. The site has the majority of games that are being played on their real-time Chess network and the rest on the primary Live server.
The real-time network is a distributed server network though there's no public information on how many servers or where in the world they are. Eventually all games will be on that network, or at least almost all, and players should get a server closer to them.
