Comment on If a database is edited before daylight savings time ends (time rolls back), would that corrupt the database?

This is poor Lemmy programming, has nothing do with DST. You’ll often see if you’re posting a comment it will say “in 3 seconds”, meaning in the future. It’s because of how the frontend calculates the relative time based on a db timestamp against the local clock of your computer… which are beginner programmer mistakes from the late 90’s.

Slightly off topic below.

The 2 blokes programming this are not very good and since they are now beginning to peddle violence inciting garbage they can stuff their monthly donation too.
