Intersperse widget update time to hour before midnight
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

For simplicity to fix the midnight burst of traffic issue on the backend, we updated the app to randomly update the widget data between midnight and 12:30am on the device time. We should consider moving this back this data update to between 11pm and midnight the night before, so the user is sure to have new widget data at midnight for a better user experience.

Be sure there are no regressions with the app's Explore feed. We don't want it to show tomorrow's data and with this new method the app will have tomorrow's data for a brief period.
