I believe I have already seen this UI recently at

https://www.timezones.digital

Interesting info about the domain,

it was regiesterd first in 2015, and has alredy been renewed till 2029-09-02 with cloudflare registrar. It's purchase price was also not a premium at just $18

Your link also has an extra feature that the OP does not.

When I open https://www.timezones.digital/ it asks permission to get my current location and then displays the time for my location. And it even got the city name correct. This is great on mobile.

Whereas https://time.fyi/timezones does not currently request access to location and instead uses the location of my IP address. Which in my case is the location of my ISP and not of myself. Using the name of the city my ISP is in, which is halfway across the country from me.

Getting a location permissions popup the instant you first load a page is an annoyance, imo. Friendlier to leave that as an option you can choose if it looks worth it.

Seems one was used as more than just inspiration for the other for my taste...

interestingly, that one misnames Rio de Janeiro as "Vila Rio de Janeiro" which is hilarious, considering the Rio metro area has ~12M people, so a bit bigger than my idea of a village

I'm not a fan of the design, tbh. I see no reason why these need to be cards, which actually forces the sliders to be next to each other (rather than below each other or combined into a single slider)

Domain costed me around $1000 and I purchased it from some marketplace. Regarding the UI, please look at my reply in the thread below.

the developer of the timezones.digital here. Yeah, he just stole our design

[kamranahmedse]

Hey! There was no intention of "stealing." I did not know who else was involved in the development of timezones.digital, and I did send a message to the designer "Mykhailov" about using it as inspiration. The only reasons for redevelopment were:

- The timezone search in the original app was laggy.

- It did not allow searching timezones by offset, e.g., 'GMT+5,' 'gmt-5,' etc.

- It did not allow timezone search by name, e.g., PST, EST, GST, etc.

- It requested location permission that seemed unnecessary.

- It was closed source.

I had been using your product for quite some time and only developed time.fyi to scratch my own itch. I will be open-sourcing it soon and planning on extending it beyond what it is today.

Having said that, thank you for your work on timezones.digital!
