What's the use case? why not just use british english?

I think this potential feature should not only be for switching between 12h and 24h time, but also adding seconds and other possible time formatting customization.

I think the actual plugin in this instance would be custom timestamps like on aliu

Because then your spelling starts getting auto-corrected into British English.

The differences are negligible, and there is not really any autocorrect, just a marker that says you made a typo. And even then you can just add the word to the dictionary or just disable spellcheck altogether if it really bothers you.

I can see something based on UnixTimestamps by ItMeSarah for BetterDiscord being ported here.

So it turns out there's a plugin by rini (see comment below for modified version) that can do all kinds of wonderful things to timestamps, but with limited settings. Hardcoding custom formats into it works well, but obviously that won't do. (edit: the plugin was completely broken by discord today) (edit 2: rini fixed the plugin)

Please use this feature too

So through some trial and error I made some better settings for the plugin I linked above. I honestly have no idea what I'm doing but it works for me. Relative timestamps are also possible as it is, and if I knew how to code at all, they could also be very customizable quite easily I believe.

I posted this on discord but nobody seems to care for this unfortunately, so I'm dropping it here so someone interested in this can try it out and maybe take over development, as I doubt I'll ever be able to make it something I'd dare to PR.
