Description

Sometimes we have had viewers ask what time it is locally in the livestream chat. It would be a nice feature to periodically (perhaps every 30 minutes) send a chat message that includes the timezone and local time of the livestream.

This could be added to handleChatMessage() line 827 in broadcast.go.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Explore broadcast.go around line 827 to understand handleChatMessage(). Implement a periodic timer that sends a chat message with the local time and timezone. Use a goroutine and time.Ticker for scheduling.
