i tried using the wiki to fix it and now it has the correct timezone. realpath answers “/usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Sao_Paulo”
though the xfce time still shows that the pc time is 16 minutes late. date command does the same. (exemple: phone shows 15:16, which is the actual time, while pc shows 15:00)
though i dont live in sao paulo, it is just a little north of here and should be in the same timezone. also, when i installed the OS with that timezone, it showed the correct time.

What does
realpath /etc/localtime
say?‘realpath /etc/localtime’ says “/etc/localtime”
Weird and what’s in it?
Open with a text editor or execute
cat /etc/localtime

This sounds like your clock may be out of sync?
Have a look at timesyncd https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd-timesyncd#Usage

My pc time is now correct, and i cant thank you enough :]
No worries, awesome that you were able fix it!
