I want to be able to set a timezone in my profile #1558

You display dates and times in many places in the UI such as https://app.bountysource.com/activity. Unfortunately it is difficult to be sure I interpret them correctly because I do not know the timezone they use.

Possible options:

  1. explicitly use UTC e.g. "Feb 8, 2022 10:20:30 AM UTC" instead of "Feb 8, 2022 10:20:30 AM" or "Feb 8, 2022 14:20:30 AM"
  2. Allow me to set a timezone in my profile and make sure that every date displayed in the WebUI uses my timezone.

I would also find it extra reassuring if I could view explicit timezone information for every date even when it is already displayed in my preferred timezone. It is ok if I have to hover or click as long as I can get the exact info when I need it.
