hey so i have a question about when/how the days in the .o command switch over, i believe it's midnight UTC(?) though when i hover over the timestamp it says 5am UTC - it would be helpful if it showed the exact time the day of the overview section starts.

either way, it seems like the overview now shows songs on the date before the one they were actually played. in my 1st image you can see "the moment" is the last song i played on may 31, and the 2nd one shows it was played just before 5pm pst (midnight utc) on june 1. also, it's logging my current plays as june 1 even though it's ~3am pst june 2. not sure if i'm understanding or explaining this correctly but is this how the overview should work? thanks!

I think, if I remember correctly, that it cuts off at midnight UTC -5 for reasons of last.fm not providing access to the user's defined timezone and so a compromise/average over all the bot's users was made

ah ok that would explain the time of the timestamp, thanks

#

as for the second part im now realizing the "wrong" date only happens because i switched from EST to PST so midnight in UTC-5 is now 2 hours before midnight for me on the previous day, so it shows that date for the whole next day of plays

#

the only change i can imagine for people like me is to include the actual time in the timestamp so it's more clear when the day switches

#

or maybe just write the date without the personalized timestamp but idk
