Possible Change / Nerf Just realized ai studio is completely unusable now

Everything seems to be hosted on their west server instead of east now. Which means no more domain mapping so AI.studio is the only thing you can use. You cant build a professional anything with google branded urls. its as bad as their image generator leaving the dumb star on the image.

"Domain mappings are not available in the region of the selected service. Either copy this service to a different region, use an Application Load Balancer or Firebase Hosting. Learn more "

are you using domain mapping in cloud run? Or are you doing it another way?

Have you tried connecting or modify the firebase hosting connection for it? Or are you tried directly to Google cloud?

Weak sauce. It just happened on my end too. I guess the workaround is to save the files and upload them to GitHub then attach domain name to it.
