Hey everyone, I'm Oskra, the maker of Time-Zone Hover! 🤔 Why did you build this? As someone who works with international teams and communities, I was constantly frustrated by copy-pasting times like "Oct 1, 1:00 PM PST" from GitHub Issues, tech blogs, and Slack into another tab just to convert them. This extension was born from my personal need to eliminate that mental friction and context switching. ✨ What's new and unique about your launch compared to alternatives? Absolute Privacy: Unlike many alternatives, Time-Zone Hover works 100% offline. It never sends your browsing data to an external server. Zero data is collected. Performance & Non-Destructive UI: We focused on a snappy user experience, aiming for a <50ms hover-to-display time. The tooltip is also non-destructive, meaning it overlays content without ever altering the page's layout, ensuring a clean interaction. Utility for Developers: The one-click copy feature for ISO 8601 formatted timestamps is a small but powerful detail for developers who frequently write documentation or test APIs. ** proud of in this launch?** I'm most proud of its commitment to being a "silent assistant" that never interrupts your workflow. It respects your privacy, runs fast, and appears only when needed. It's not flashy, but for a tool you might use daily, I believe this reliability and transparency are what matter most. I can't wait to hear your feedback!
