You don't use them normally in the US, I've been referring to europe/amsterdam or europe/paris all my life in Linux installers and various equipment. I've never ever encountered netherlands/amsterdam or something like that.

From the list of deprecated zones, we could have been using "GB", "Poland", "Portugal", "CET", but that's about it. "Netherlands" didn't exist.

Given the old names were deprecated in 1993, it's hardly surprising that I never before discovered "GB".

It’s the same in Europe as it is in the US. Normal people refer to Europe/Paris as CET, just like normal people refer to America/New_York as Eastern Time.
