The relatively recent addition of "default to current date" is really useful on date fields, where 95% of the time the user is going to select "today."
However, it seems that the field doesn't use our local timezone, unless I enable "display time." I don't want to have to enable "display time" as our bases are designed to be used on mobile, so it's always a challenge to keep views succinct.
Is there a setting I'm missing, or is this a bug in Airtable?
Here's a couple of screenshots:
Showing the variance in the baked in "created date" field and the "date" field, which defaults to current date.
Here is the edit history of the "beetroot" record, showing that the user (me) didn't accidentally select a different date.
