Always connect to Hong Kong server instead of fastest server on iOS devices
Hello, I have noticed despite on my Mac connected to the same WiFi network would connect to the fastest routing via TPE server. On multiple iOS devices I tested NextDNS using either app or profile would always defaults to Hong Kong server despite significantly higher latency. Here is the https://ping.nextdns.io results.

Even when connect to cellular that has IPv6 enabled TYO server would still be a much better choice than Hong Kong with averaging more than 30% faster response time. In the past few months TYO server is how my iPhone would route; however, this has also change to (always?) use slower Hong Kong server instead recently.
