I think “15 hours ago” is fine. That one is quite precise. Showing date as “1 year ago” is not helpful. It could be anything between 2021-10-06 and 2022-10-05. It’s a huge span. In that time Ukraine got invaded and the Queen died.
I think the reverse of that is the exact perfect behaviour for a timestamp. Otherwise the timestamps are useless in a screenshot or any archive that can't display the hover text.

FYI if you're using the standard lemmy UI, you can hover over (or long press on phone) the "15 hours ago" to get the precise timestamp.

Tooltips don't help mobile users.
Why not? As I just said you can long press on phone to show the timestamp.
