RIght?

It might convert to months and then years, like the comments do.
(Therefore, “23 years ago”, if we're being like the comments, which don't show the exact date after all that time.)
It could also show the exact date ago with years and months, or it could be like what you were saying.

Whatever's best.

My suggestion is a date tag.
How would it work?
This is an example placement of a date tag:

The super-duper Scratch party is [date]28/2/2024[/date]

The date tag would be used to show a word like Today or Yesterday if the date put into it was in the last few days, much like the dates on forum posts.
The above code is only one idea of how the date is inserted into the block. (It obviously wouldn’t use what I used there, because other countries besides America put that in a different order.)
Why would it be useful?
Example 1: Say @RandomUser is making a post about his party he’s having in a studio, and it’s only on that day. The day before, he types in his forum post, “The party is tomorrow!”. Then, the next day, someone goes on and sees it. They plan to visit the studio the next day. The next day, they get to the studio - and the party’s over.
That sounds a bit far-fetched, but you get the idea.

Here are some suggestions of how it might be in more detail from other forumers.

the blue controller site has a feature like this, and it translates into everyone's timezone so this would be a nice feature to have if it was similar to that.

The title was originally “Time Tag”, but I thought “Date Tag” would be more accurate.

I'm generally scared to post this because you're my boss but i guess I'm taking chances

Can't you look at the activity? Or, in the forums, when it was posted?
