Use one function to parse all times
Currently, some files like timeout.py and slowmode.py implement their own ways to parse times in text, such as "10s". This increases the complexity of the files and overall codebase.
Instead, such files should use the already-implemented convert_to_seconds utility function.
Yeah, those functions are pretty old/early on code and should be redone/standardized and all other functions relating to time in the code base should be re standardized.
I think a good idea would be to have a specific file dedicated to time like utils/time.py as it's a category of functions quite more commonly needed.
Yeah that makes sense. I can try working on this when I get my test bot all set up.
In progress, we already have shared time functions in utils/functions.py and are actively designing an improved system for it
