24-Hour Format on Discord Messages
My system time (Windows) is formatted in 24-Hour format (as I had set it to). Yet, however, Discord only uses the AM-PM 12-Hour format on message timestamps. Discord should have an option to allow 24-hour timestamps on messages.

It's possible to change the language to "English (UK)" to have discord in english, but use a 24 hour time format.This works fine if I use discord in my browser, or the discord app on linux. However on android this is not the case.
The only difference between both english languages on Android is: the am/pm is uppercase or not. I do not want discord being the only app on my phone being set to german. Yes, I updated the app.
Every language has its default date and time format, but nearly all programs have the ability to change that, *or at least respect the system settings*. At least there is a workaround on the PC, but not on mobile.
believe it or not, there are really humans living outside of the US. they got this weird thing called metric system and they have completely different timezones, languages, time and date formats, too! Sorry if this sounded sarcastic, I am just a little bit frustrated, since this is not something which is rather new.
