Tiny amount of UI feedback; I automatically wanted to click “cloud-synchronized” at the top to find out how it works technically, since the text is blue and I’d expect it to be a link.
May be better to just italicize or bold that rather than change the color. Or better yet, actually make it a link to a short “how does it work” page
I'll do that, thanks. I've never had feedback that's indicated people wanted to know.
It uses NTP's clock synchronization algorithm to get the servers' time. This is done over a websocket as it's twice as fast as a typical ajax request/response. Then all changes are made using the browser's idea of server time.
At the bottom of the page, you can see your computer/phone's time offset and precision.
