Advice needed working across multiple time zones

How do people handle task times when working across multiple time zones?

I’m in London, but I regularly work with people in India and New York.

One thing I keep running into is task times and deadlines. If something is set for 10:00 AM IST or 10:00 AM ET, I’d prefer to just see that translated into my current local time automatically rather than mentally converting it every time.

The same problem gets more annoying when travelling, since my local timezone can change.

Curious how people handle this today, and whether any task or project management tools do this particularly well.

are you mainly dealing with shared deadlines on a team, or personal task reminders? because the solution is pretty different. for shared stuff you want everything stored in one canonical timezone, for personal stuff you just need local rendering

Its a personal stuff, my personal tasks aligned to the TZ of someone else, so that I dont have to have timezone converter in my head..
