Yeah, thought they were just gonna recommend the time crate (which has seen some modernization over the years).
Kind of unfortunate that the ecosystem is even more fragmented than I thought, but jiff is being developed by Andrew Gallant, who's on the Rust team, so that has the potential to become the new standard...
Nothing of significance will actually happen. The crate is too deeply intrenched in the ecosystem. And the little maintenance needed will be easily picked up.
Coming from C not C++, I actually didn't like chrono at first, but grew to be okay with it, and it gets the job done.
It has little to do with time on first glance, at least to me I read the name as a gif manipulation library. If it were named jiffy or similar it might be slightly more reasonable.

Wow! I always just used chrono out of familiarity. Guess I'll have to check out jiff!

Why ? It looks fine to my non-native-English eyes.
