TimeZone problem on dates with hover-on text #1220

My profile timezone settings is UTC+1 but some dates shows me UTC+2 instead

https://tasvideos.org/ UTC+2 on all Dates
https://tasvideos.org/Profile UTC+2 on Wiki Last Edit, Wiki First Edit, otherwise UTC+1
https://tasvideos.org/UserFiles UTC+2 on all Dates

Your timezone setting is a location that is currently observing UTC+2.

meshuggahtas commented 2 years ago

And why do I get UTC+1 and UTC+2 dates depending on what page I'm seeing? There's definitely a bug.

edit: Please try https://tasvideos.org/Profile and compare your hover text with the top Joined On and Last Logged In timezone with the bottom of the page Wiki Last Edit, Wiki First Edit

Because it was UTC+1 when the timestamp was made. Due to Daylight Savings Time timezones can switch between observing UTC+1 and UTC+2. We show dates with offsets as they happened. This is exactly working as intended.

Checked and Masterjun is right, working as intended. Educated myself on DST. Sorry!
