Show HN: Discord-timestamp-generator – No-login dynamic time tool
discord-timestamp-generator.com
I built a small tool that generates Discord timestamps.
Discord has a built-in feature where you can embed timestamps in messages using a format like:
<t:1700000000:F>
When sent, Discord automatically converts the time to each user's local timezone. This is really useful for global communities, events, and announcements.
The problem is that you first need to convert a normal date into a Unix timestamp and format it correctly. If you just want to quickly schedule an event, that step can be a bit inconvenient.
So I made a simple generator that converts a date directly into the correct Discord timestamp format.

You can pick a date and it instantly generates the timestamp with different Discord display formats, plus a quick preview.
It's a tiny side project but I found it useful when managing Discord communities.
Feedback welcome!
Also, if anyone here works with Twitter/X embeds, I previously built a small Twitter web viewer that lets you view tweets without login:
