dates on postsI’ve confused myself several times about the age of a post. The joined date is not very interesting but really stands out as the only date associated with the post.
I suggest removing the joined date and always showing the date for the post, perhaps as Yesterday, Jan 12, 2017 or Thursday, June 2, 2016 .

Re: dates on postsThe join date is intended to give the reader another piece of information to use in assessing the likely usefulness of the post (longer term members being more trustworthy, I guess).
However, I agree. The date there is too easy to mistake for the posting date. We'll work on improving that.
As for the format of the date, that's under your control.
Go to your Preferences and you can choose to have absolute dates instead of relative.
