And why?

Glacier protocol

Multi-sigs and timelocks are very powerful. You might be interested in Liana wallet as well: https://wizardsardine.com/liana/

Oh thanks! Does glacier do timelocks for withdrawls?

Sorry, I didn't mean any Glacier software or anything, I literally just meant the guide: https://glacierprotocol.org/docs/overview/

I think your question would apply to Liana, which is wallet software. Right now the Bitcoin protocol has the ability to put a timelock on funds when you deposit them, but you can't put a timelock on funds based on when you try to withdraw.

I have seen a proposal for how to do this without a softfork, but I can't say I've quite understood it just yet (I haven't put the time into understanding it that I need to): https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2023-January/021365.html

Do you mean a timelock for a multisig to expire? That's what Blockstream Jade does. But what would be cool is a timelock where you can't withdraw the coins or access the wallet (maybe with a passphrase) until a set time.
