Add a few commonly compared timezones by default. I should be able to load this and get to work, without setup.

#52Maybe the cards could get background color based on time of the day (e.g. blue for mid-day, dark for night etc.)

Disagree. It appears to default to your local time zone for the first entry, which is a sane default. If there were other useless (to me) defaults as well I’d have to remove them as visual clutter (in addition to still needing to add the time zones I wish to compare).

#54Might be useful to have the slider cover 3 days, rather than just 24h. With the single day, New York visually looks to be ahead of London at certain times of day (e.g from 00:00 to 05:00 UK time), because NY is still in its previous day.

#55Great UI design; clean, intuitive, and useful. Thank you for this! On a side note, I'd really like to know what broken mechanism aggressively downranks such quality community submissions. 67 upvotes in 2 hours, and only ranked 9th. Meanwhile, another post with fewer upvotes in more time is ranked 2nd. Something is very wrong here. I'd love to see more posts like this one, and fewer standard blog articles that are hit…
Nothing is wrong here in my opinion

#59I've always been a fan of the https://everytimezone.com interface, which seems like it may have been acquired at some point. Still works brilliantly though!
Yes! I've been looking for this one and couldn't find it! Thank you. Google is useless for finding stuff like this now.

#60This is really great! One feature I would love to see on this is link sharing. Just encoding data in the URL to share with others.
Maybe adding a custom label to each timezone so international groups can easily keep track of team times!
