But the message says it was sent on March 31st.

the timestamp is generally local for the reader, not the poster.

A lot of April 1st posts seem to get made on March 31st and that includes from people in fairly western timezones, so I think they just get their post done the previous night, go to sleep, and let the chaos unravel.

I guess next year I'll have to post a joke just after midnight. I'll wake to find confusion and chaos.

Often we are not even included on maps.
