    So funny thing I’m in a leftist discord and they convinced me that 24 hour time is better. I immediately switched to using it…
    … And struggled to understand what time it was for months before switching back to my normal 12 hour clock. 😂

    Basically, while I would eagerly support calendar reform, I may find the change difficult.

      I can’t understand why anyone would be confused by this. We learn about 24h time format in primary school! It’s also extremely easy to just subtract by 12.

        I’m just american and didnt learn 24 hour time as a child. It is easy in theory, just old habits die hard.
