Switch timezone to UTC+5 in Kazakhstan
By weeebdev, history, 8 months ago, In English

Recently, Kazakhstan moved from UTC+6 to UTC+5 (https://astanatimes.com/2024/01/kazakhstan-switches-to-utc05-00-time-zone-from-march-1/)

But it didn't change at codeforces. Today I submitted 250120917 at 23:18 (UTC+5), but in my submission tab it shows 00:18 (UTC+6). Therefore, I do not know if my daily streak is considered to be broken.

Thank you for your attention, MikeMirzayanov

I think the timezone on Codeforces is based on your own device's timezone settings — I had a friend using a VM in my own PC, and while the main computer is UTC+7, she set her virtual at UTC+9, and thus browsers on two entities display different local times as well.

    Yeah, but my device is already moved to UTC+5.

Eh, now my submission for 12.01.2024 241205984 has become invalid. But there is no other way to solve it, I guess. Thanks, MikeMirzayanov
