Slack's status page does the same thing, and perhaps more insultingly, has a link that says "See in your timezone" that just links to timeanddate.com. Really? None of the 1000s of JS devs at Slack could figure out how to import a date/time library into their status page?
- enraged_camel 8y agoJust because you can import a library to do something doesn’t mean you should. Why bloat the software even more for a function that is used rarely (i.e. during outages) and by very few people?
- tazjin 8y agoSlack is not particularly known for caring about bloat in their pages.

- enraged_camel 8y agoThat’s why I said “why should they bloat it even more”. I mean it’s already bloated and you want them to add more stuff just for an obscure little thing?
