Most of Africa, from what I heard from African developers.

There are still large patches where the internet has outages often, data centers there too suffer from it. Same with energy, depending on the region it is not a guarantee.

(This is of course a consequence of Africa still transforming and putting up infrastructure, and it varies vastly depending on the region).

It's hard to code with remote LLMs if they can go dark for half a day, and it is pricey to have it running on a local stack (at good token output speed).
