Question

Timestamps on messages - need improvement?

In general, I hate when things do this:

 

Just tell me the actual date!

 

But, if you are going to do it, make it accurate:

 

 

To meaningfully reflect the actual date, that should say two years ago!

If it’s going to talk in years, then the value needs to be to the nearest year.

 

Or just show both ?
