According to the own definition of

Don't be lazy, Wozniak, read! "time is "what clocks indicate" is
This is wrong!
Time does not depend on clocks, because clocks are manmade artifacts.
Essentially the concept of time depends on a process of counting something, which is assumed to happen always at the same rate.
In earlier times this was the rotation of the Earth around its own axis and aroud the sun.
But these events do not happen at the same frequency forever, because the days get slightly longer and the years get more days.
Therefore, other means are used today, which are assumed to be universally stable.
Somehow we know, at least assume, that such frequencies are not stable neither, but we get stuck, if we question also these frequencies.
So, essentially some sort of 'atomic clock' ist constructed and used, which defines, how long a second is and what time we have right now.
But still nature doesn't care.
