Change MAAS timezone

Hey folks.

My region+rack controller are installed on Ubuntu 20.04, which has always been on EDT.
But the webgui is always showing UTC.

How do I change to work as EDT?

Thanks

Hi @junior-c

Timezones are notoriously hard to deal with in software and we find most users benefit from being shown UTC times. For example, although your region controller is installed on a system which is set to EDT, users accessing the MAAS UI might be coming from a different timezone and then have to convert.

Please feel free to make a request for this in the features category and see if there are others with the same request.
