Display all information in the user's timezone #166

Feature request

What problem does this feature solve?

Users viewing the page and getting confused/frustrated by the days in the timeline being incorrect for their timezone. See #149.

What does the proposed API look like?

Adding a timezone parameter to each API request (server-rendered only).

How should this be implemented in your opinion?

  1. Detect timezone from browser (with JavaScript)
  2. Include timezone param with each API request
  3. Use user's timezone when calculating the days to show in the timeline

Note that the initial page-load of the timeline won't contain the timezone so may need to be modified to perform an API request on load.

Are you willing to work on this yourself?

Given that I don't have any experience in the technologies being used, this would take much more time than I am able to commit to this.

Would it be an option to keep the backend UTC and let the client handle conversion? This way the static pages support this feature.

Another option is to use something like moment.js library to update the times on the browser in realtime, that would work with any kind of installation as it would be done in each user browser and according to the computer timezone.

Does anyone know where all the client display code is? Maybe its just a few places?

I guess it is here: https://github.com/bazzite/statusfy/tree/develop/packages/%40statusfy/core/client/components
