What's the Scratch time zone?
In the studio activity the dates are always behind by one day and on the forums the last edited dates are very incorrect. What's the time zone that Scratch uses for studios and the forums?

What's the Scratch time zone?
I'm pretty sure it's either EST (because that's the time zone in which MIT is located, which is the eastern United States) or UTC.
Edit: More specifically, timestamps on the forums tend to be in EST for me, but I usually get studio-related notifications at around the equivalent of midnight to 1AM for UTC, which is a bit odd.

EST Time says 07:07 for me, look at the time this post was made.

I think your timezone showing might be because you might be using a userscript.

I always though the time zone was coded to be set to the users timezone.
