@MelAllyouneedislove wishing to join many events!!! For having awareness <3
Brains are so amazing
@MxBearyButterfly I enjoy having a brain.
Are these discussion times EST? I live on the West Coast.
@NavySodium I think they are in EDT. EST ended this past Sunday in the United States.
@grilnard7
Oh right thanks! Sorry, my computer keeps sending replies right before I write them, but this was helpful thank you!
@NavySodium on the eastern seaboard (AKA) eastern time roughly half the year we are EST or GMT - 5 this past sunday we switched to EDT or GMT - 4. This can be confusing when working with other countries who do not do a time shift either at all or at a different date. This began as an effort to save energy in Germany during WWI and was copied by many other countries. The difficulty is that there is no universal time change day. The USA has changed the start of EDT no less then 3 times since it was first adopted.
I hope this helps. Perhaps times for events,could be posted in GMT or UTC in future since this app is used internationally. Just a suggestion.
