Certain websites and addons follow browser default theme or timezone in order to determine whether or not to display day or night mode.

Websites such as a Lemmy and addons like Auto Night Mode need to be able to determine my timezone so they can automatically switch between day and night at the appropriate time.

is there a way to set my local time while making sure the rest of the privacy protections remain active?

Thanks

    Where do you see that strict ETP sets your time zone to UTC? Setting resistFingerprinting to true does that.

      Yeah I can confirm it doesn’t do that for me. And yes I have resistFingerprinting turned off of course, as that causes all kinds of varied issues.
