textlog
I personally enjoy the lack of timestamps. But if this becomes a problem, maybe vague descriptions would be useful. "fairly recent", "sometime ago", "this is ancient", etc.
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.
That was one idea. I’m thinking to restore them just for historical posts so that there is some context when they were written and what was happening then, perhaps after a month, and inside the post details page, not in the feeds.
If that's the case, YearMonth should be more than enough. This post is from 2026-08. This gives you enough context of what was happening at the time, but with no more context than necessary. I'm suggesting that as a compromise. I really like the absence of likes, timestamps, counters, and so on. Text is timeless. I don't need the precise timestamp of the Complaint Tablet to Ea-Nasir to laugh at Nanni and his messenger being treated with contempt.
