This includes most of the US and Europe. The sun setting at 5 pm during the winter is normal.

Most of the US is considerable more to the south than Europe. Remember that Naples, a city in the south of Europe, is on the same latitude as New York City, as city in the Northern part of the US. So you can't easily transfer experiences regarding this from one to the other.

It is just dark in the winter in large parts of Europe, and no amount of clock fiddling is going to change that.
