Oh, that's an easier question:
<<list-links "[sameday:created{!!created}]">>
The sameday filter does understand timezones and "sameday", but it doesn't
understand about hard-coded values, despite what the documentation says. So
it will use your local time to match sameday with an existing tiddler. But
not if you do your own (e.g. 20210313)
