Hm idk, various things. If someone finds posts from months/years ago, timestamps put them in context (what "current events" are on their mind &c). Also hints if it's still fresh in mind when you reply, or if it'll be a blast from the past. (Arg for YYYYMMDD, perhaps not HHMMSS.)

Why do you need it? It’s just for stalking when someone was online and might bias to ignore older posts that could still be in /hottextloghotA quieter place for your thoughts. —not knowing the time also makes it easier to reply whenever you feel, less pressure. I don’t have time on my desktop either, hate time :p

That’s what I’m hoping for! Resurrecting old interesting discussions based on their content. And also not ignoring posts that are not fresh, e.g responding to a “good morning” post. If you see “5h” you would ignore it. Now you don’t know. Let’s see how it goes for a few days.

I think this is trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist on this platform. I would predict that any sense of "timelessness" will come from #tlogenter to follow's plaintext-centricity and feature minimalism, not a lack of timestamps.

@stagascreative technologist creator of textlogenter to follow If anything, a lack of timestamps would reduce the value of historical posts on here. Without a timestamp, I have no idea that I'm looking at a historical post to begin with.

I hear you. What about approximate time? just wrote: ~30mins replied to you recently: ~6h replied to you earlier: ~2d wrote some time ago: ~30d wrote a long time ago: older

+1. The timestamp is critical context for a tweet. Microblogging is fundamentally a chronological log of messages. Removing timestamps from logs makes them unusable and inherently breaks the medium.
