How the sunrise and sunset times would be affected by abolishing daylight saving time in the USA. Would you prefer to keep it or drop it? (files.catbox.moe)

That's the same amount of effort or possibly more vs just having time zones. I keep seeing people express this sentiment and I don't get how that's better having to memorize something that basically just equates to time zones lol.

Fuck DST though. Just put everyone back on standard time and leave it.

I would accept just using standard time.

I think it would be less work to just be like "let's meet at 15:00" and not have to worry about it on my end. I guess you could just pick a time zone. We do that at work- we just talk about eastern time and make everyone else do the conversion.
