I had it set to localtime instead of UTC, which for me is -5 hours. Caused me a bit of grief earlier today after making a new post that started out already five hours old!
It seems like a real pickle though. What if I set my time to a year in the future and make a post? Would that post stay at the top of new all year? I guess lemmy should use the received date rather than what is sent but that could be problematic when things are bogged down or having federation issues.
@danQuix0te sorry, I shouldn’t have deleted my comment. Still trying to get the time thing sorted out.
No worries! All tests welcome in this thread. Do you think it’s your server host? What’s the output of the “date” command?

UTC now. Am I still the ghost of federation’s past?
Edit: seems so
One more try. I sure hope you don’t have notifications enabled for all replies…
Edit: well now I’m stumped
