All time references are for the image below

I'm GMT+1

 

Suggestion

Make forum posts that are younger than 24h give minute exact timestamps.

 

Current time stamps(within 24h).

'posted 21h ago' 

'posted 2h ago'

 

Proposed new time stamps

'posted yesterday at 12:56'

'posted today at 7:56'

                 Or

'posted 21h 00m ago'

'posted 2h 00m ago'

 

Reason

-For auctions that are 24h or less and started on first bid. It's impossible to know when exactly they end.

-We currently have a strange situation where if a post is between 1 and 24h old we lose information about it(the minutes).

 

 

Example

Here's an auction I just failed to rebid on because I set my alarm for 9:50 assuming wrongly that the auction was going to end at 10.

We can now see after 24h has elapsed and the auction is over, the exact end time was 9:30. But it's not possible to see this until after 24h.

This is how it looks on PC when hovering over the time by the way.
