    fair enough; I don’t use proprietary sm anyway so I don’t know what’s common there.

      it’s just one of so many things about software and websites in the past 5 years or so, everything must always be a relative date, with finding absolute dates and times being way more of a pain in the ass than it should be.

      tiny but noticeable bit of enshittification :<

        I don’t think relative dates is associated with proprietary software or enshitification. I’m using Lemmy over Jerboa (both FLOSS and not enshitified) and it uses relative dates.

          I didn’t imply anything about licensing. It sucks no matter if its in proprietary or f/oss software.

            enshittification is user-negative changes which somehow benefit the software creators. I’m not sure relative dates qualify.
