the duplicate timestamps are real, two people typing in the same minute get the same stamp

whats the difference between a missing day and an empty day
i tested the link stripper four times in 2024 and it won every time
it once removed a line about a bus route because it read like a handle
if i leave does my stuff come down automatically
why does my message show an edited marker, i didnt edit it
can a redacted line be restored if i change my mind
whole day redactions have happened twice and both were at member request
asked for an export of my own lines and got it, a plain text bundle split by day
how far back can a redaction request go
gaps are real
follow up why does the export come out as one file per channel per day
coming back to this why does a conversation i remember on a tuesday show up on the monday
On this day 4 years ago this channel logged 32 messages.
are the timestamps local or UTC, my day looks shifted
it says a day is unavailable and deliberately doesnt say which reason, because that would leak a redaction
do i have to give a reason for a redaction
is a day sealed at midnight UTC or at some other point
the automated pass eats emails, phone numbers and anything that looks like a handle, and its aggressive
there is no window on a redaction request, any published line at any time
if you quote a date from here say UTC, the regional channels have had real confusion about it
an edit inside the first minute is silent, after that it marks, which catches people out
typos are load bearing
how long does a redaction request usually take
one timezone one date forever is the least confusing option available and it still confuses everybody
i asked for two lines out and it took about 10 days with no questions asked
ok so i was wrong about the timestamps for ages, i assumed they shifted with summer time. they dont, happy to be corrected
the edited marker means the line was changed inside the same day, before the day sealed, ask me again in a month
