      One of the things that I sometimes struggle with in the release calendar is that it rounds to the nearest hour. Now, release are on the top of the hour, so it's note a huge deal, but it would be convenient to have a tooltip/pop-up where we could see the absolute release time for the local time zone (I am in UTC+0 at the moment, so that's what I would get).

      Something like so:

      A section of the release calendar with a tooltip above the time until release

        The rounding can definitely make it hard to tell which hour it is counting down to, so something to increase clarity would be appreciated.

        Stay shiny, y'all.

          I was just going to create a thread to request this.

          This has been bothering me for months, but I would absolutely love a way to find the absolute release time.

          Outside of a select few of my most favourite series, I don't really keep track of the times for all of the series I am keeping up with. And I'm often going to the release calendar trying to figure out when these other series release. So just having the absolute timestamp, even if its not in my local timezone, would be a major boon for figuring out when something comes out.

          Whether it be a tooltip when hovering over the relative time, or hidden in a data-* attribute within the DOM. Just having it would make things so much better.

            @killerrin Maybe not helpful for today stuff, but if you look at releases where it's more than 1 day before it comes out it actually says things like releases at 15:00. It's only stuff releasing in under 24h where it switches to the in x hours or y minutes mode.
