Well, it's like 7 PM in my place when I made this post and in my computer it shows 8 AM. However, in my phone, it shows 12 PM! What? It has the correct time, so this is pointless.

If you live in EST. Keep in mind that not all scratch users live in EST. It has the correct time, so this is pointless.
To the OP: Support! It will cause less confusion.

For me, right now it's UTC-4, meaning EDT. It changes twice per year, so you should just call it ET. Unless yours does not adapt to daylight savings time, which is possible if there are differences by device as you said. According to my calculations, it's EST, but it may differ by computer.

I agree. In my computer it's showing EST time, but in my phone it shows UTC time. According to my calculations, it's EST, but it may differ by computer.

EST is UTC-5. And forum time switches based on time of year, as I said above, so right now (March–November) it is EDT (meaning the UTC-4 part is correct).Forum Time (EST) is UTC-4.I agree.

I don't know how a time zone will help you get tracked down (assuming you're in the USA)
But a user, for some reason we're not aware of, might want to keep their state private contrary to their country (and maybe they set even that to Antarctica).

Major support. This is always a big necessity for me when I have to make official announcements for my Scratch shop or see when something was posted in my timezone (I need to do that sometimes since I help around in a lot of forum topics).

Fully Support- whenever I see an exact time, I would like it if I didn't have to guess when it was posted in my timezone.
I use BST, so the Scratch clocks are 5 hours behind my timezone. This gets on my nerves a little.

Yeah, this would be neat if there was a way to enable / disable it. c:I also agree and support an option to disable it. Agreed, but there should also be an option to disable this.
I think it should be It could be like this: (insert mockup here) disabled by default and then you could enable it in settings, if this gets added
But mainly I just want it to show the right time on my screen so it's a bit easier, and it could include my time zone next to the time of every comment I post to make me feel better, but no one else would be able to see it. Actually that should be an option too, in a drop-down menu (you could add this): disabled, only visible to me, enabled. (I would choose the only visible to me option) I support for that..
