[–] sculptor0725@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 weeks ago (2 children) Interesting. The only thing that really surprised me was the time zone thing. Can I hide that somehow? permalink fedilink source hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] aim4harmony@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago Yes, the time zone can be spoofed via browser settings or with an ad-on. permalink fedilink source parent [–] irotsoma@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago I know IronFox and some other forks have a setting to change your timezone to UTC-0. But you'll have to live with remembering to convert time on most websites unless you log in and your profile sets the timezone. Not a huge deal, but it trips me up more than I'd like to admit. Especially since I avoid sites that require logins. I have heard that you can get a browser plugin to change the time locally, but you'd have to trust the plugin since it will need access to all content on all sites. permalink fedilink source parent
