How can I remove leading zero of clock on a display in esphome?
need 9:35 instead of 09:35. thx. My clock so far: ( %-I produced no output )

time:
  - platform: sntp   
    id: esptime
display:
  - platform: ssd1306_i2c
    model: "SSD1306 128x64"
    address: 0x3C         #
    lambda: |-
      it.strftime(64, 32, id(myfontx), TextAlign::CENTER, "%I:%M", id(esptime).now());

Try "%#I:%M"

Not all “strftime” options are available directly in esphome, one option would be to create a template sensor in HA and display that on the ephome display.

For anyone looking for this in the future, making a template sensor works. This is my template for this. You can then include the sensor in esphome as a text sensor.

- sensor:
  - name: "TimeNoLeadZero"
    icon: mdi:clock
    state: >
      {{ as_timestamp(now()) | timestamp_custom("%-I:%M %p") }}

display:
  platform: tm1637
  clk_pin: GPIO18
  dio_pin: GPIO19
  update_interval: 500ms
  lambda: |-
      static int i = 0;
      i++;
      if ((i % 2) == 0)
        it.strftime("%l.%M", id(ds1307_time).now());
        else
        it.strftime("%l%M", id(ds1307_time).now());
