Why would they post at 7 AM? Shouldn’t they always post at like 11:59 PM?

Edit: Okay smartasses. Why would they post at 7 AM EST (often used as the default time zone in the US, and also the latest time zone so other US time zones would only be worse)?

7am anywhere on earth is midnight somewhere else.

Isn't there some weird ahh timezones that are 45 minutes apart and technically 7 AM there is midnight nowhere?

Seme parte of america are in the - 7 timezone so if it was posted there and seen in the UK, it all fits.

[-] themoonisacheese@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Yes, but my point is that there exist timezones when 7am is midnight nowhere.

Nepal is at +5:45.

That’s the time corrected for the timezone of the person who took the screenshot.

Well even then the news might take a bit to break so “did Jimmy Carter die yesterday?“ at 11:59p makes sense but the name gets a little long

Gotta optimize for your demo of course :|
