You might be surprised to learn a lot of servers even have largish time drift. I might be repeating info which is getting out of date but I heard 30 second drift isn't uncommon. Obviously doing NTP syncing more frequently would probably help that.

Yeah, the React Native debugger is broken on my Pixel because the time is different from my laptop by ~0.5 s, so short taps register as long presses or something like that.

If it's comparing times from two different devices, then it's not broken because of the difference in times.

If it's broken because the designer assumed any two devices would have a sub-second time difference, it's still broken.

Yes my point was to say that it's broken.

Oh I see, I misunderstood initially but I got it when rereading.
