How Discord timestamps work

A Discord timestamp is a short code, <t:UNIX:STYLE>. UNIX is the moment as the number of seconds since 1 January 1970 UTC, and STYLE is one letter: t, T, d, D, f, F or R. Paste the code into a message and Discord replaces it with the date or time in each reader's own time zone and language, so an event at 9 PM in India shows the right local time to members in London or New York without anyone doing the maths. Leave the style out and Discord uses f.

Questions

How do I use a timestamp in Discord?
Copy the code for the style you want and paste it into a message, exactly as shown, including the < and >. After you send it, Discord shows the formatted date or time. Hover over it, or long-press it on a phone, to see the full date.
Does everyone see the same time?
Everyone sees the same moment, written in their own time zone and language. That is the point of a timestamp: one code works for a whole server spread across countries.
Can bots and webhooks send timestamps?
Yes. Put the same code in the message text, or in an embed's description or field values. Embed titles, footers and author names show the raw code instead.
What is the relative style for?
The R style shows how long until or since the time, like "in 3 hours" or "2 days ago", and Discord keeps it up to date. It is the usual choice for event countdowns, giveaways and reminders.
How do I find out what time a timestamp code means?
Paste the code, such as <t:1792629000:R>, into the Unix timestamp box above. The date, time and every style update to match it.
