Distributed groups struggle to plan around local time
Distributed teams and international communities need to compare local times and find meeting slots that work across time zones. The requests point to gaps in existing clock and comparison tools: people want to enter an exact time, label and share time zones, and preserve a reusable clock grid. Some meetup attendees also find event times inconveniently late in their own time zone.
For distributed teams and international community organizers. Mentioned from Oct 2023 to Feb 2026 on Bluesky and Hacker News.

This is really great! One feature I would love to see on this is link sharing. Just encoding data in the URL to share with others. Maybe adding a custom label to each timezone so international groups can easily keep track of team times!
I work in an environment where we look at the time across many different timezones around the world. A couple of feature requests if you are ever in the mood:
