No 24 hour clock is definitrly something important missing. Keep them coming, consider that this new version is probably still version 0v65 with lots of tweaking left to do.
But without having to keep the creaky old one working, time can be dedicated to making this platform right.

This is another XenForo weirdness. I can set the time format for everyone but it has to be the same for everyone. We do want to change this but for now we are stuck with this. My apologies.
Still a bug. Where they put it in the queue we have little control.

I say set the forum software to 24 hour clock. If you can't subtract 12, you have no business here anyway IMHO.
Right now, it's 11h00. In two hours, it'll be 13h00.

Agree. AM/PM is very confusing for my poor UTC oriented brain... Which incidentally is always in 24h format.
It has taken me quite some time to learn that PM is post meridiem. For me "a" felt more "after" midday.
Why do americans write "id est" when they mean that is and e.g exempli gratia when they mean for example?
You do realize the ISO format is yyyymmdd, which will upset everyone but the Chinese 🙂
That's the official date format in Canada, too. Doesn't bother me at all - I use that formet myself.
If that is meant as a joke I'm not getting it.
Anyway, yyyy-mm-dd is the only date format that is natural/logical, for example, the only one which is sortable because it represents a number directly in a positional notation, something even the Maya got right with their calendar. Same thing with time, (..h)hh:mm:ss is also a positional format (with base sequence 10-6-10-6-10-10-.... from LSD to MSD).
And as I can see it is already in use (if not overriden by those "N minutes ago" "Tuesday" dynamic aliases). Time is the remaining issue (not really an issue for me actually tbh) with that am/pm thingy.
