❓ Common Questions
-
What’s the difference between epoch seconds and milliseconds?
Milliseconds are 1,000 times more precise and commonly used in JavaScript or APIs. -
Why is epoch based on 1970?
It's the start of the Unix time system — simple, widely adopted, and timezone-neutral. -
Does epoch include timezone info?
No. Epoch time is UTC by design. Timezones are applied only when converting to readable formats.
