Well, time to post that Tom scott video again I guess.

Time zones are an endless source of frustration, this one doesn’t sound too bad though:
Going forward, all timestamps in the API are switching from timestamps without time zone (
2023-09-27T12:29:59.113132
) toISO8601
timestamps (e.g.2023-10-29T15:10:51.557399+01:00
orZ
suffix). In order to be compatible with both 0.18 and 0.19, parse the timestamp asISO8601
and add aZ
suffix if it fails (for older versions).

Yup, that makes total sense. Kind of surprising they didn't have the TZ on there in the first place but it happens.
