Bug description

Clicking on the ... in a reply activates the widget with the fave/boost actions, but also hides the date.

This is particularly troublesome when the post mentions a relative time. like "stream starts in 5 hours".

To reproduce

  1. open any post that has replies
  2. hover over the reply
  3. try to read the timestamp

Expected behavior

Timestamp should be visible, furthermore the user should be able to hover on the humanized timestamp to see the exact date.

Other

This is doubly annoying because the expected UX for popups is that clicking outside the popup area or pressing esc will make it disappear, but that doesn't happen here, quite the opposite. The user has to move the cursor off of the post they are trying to view the timestamp of to be able to read the timestamp, which is very counterintuitive, to say the least.

See attached screenshot.

@raingloom understood your reasoning. For now, if you tap on '...', the full timestamp is visible under "View post" menu item Screenshot 2024-12-30 at 1 42 00 PM
