Playlist Date Display Lacks Precision

Playlists on here have less functionality than normal playlists. Why display the date as "over 2 years ago" when Spotify lists the actual date.

Hey Luke, Can you send me a screenshot of where you're seeing this? We do have a tendency to show relative dates ("over 2 years ago") as opposed to an actual date. Although in the Spotify app, they also show relative dates (ie: "2 years ago"). I'll look for all the dates we do this on and make an effort to show more precision.

Okay, this is what I've come up with. 1. Added a new "Date Range" preference (relative date vs full date) 2. If on "relative" mode (1yr ago), hovering dates now shows the full date stamp. 3. If on "full date" mode (Wed, Sept 15, 2026 at 12:22AM), hovering dates now shows relative date. Should be published later today.
