Expected behavior

GNU ls and BSD ls display a different time format for recently modified files. Old files show the year, new files the time.

For GNU ls this is configurable by the TIME_STYLE variable:

The TIME_STYLE argument can be full-iso, long-iso, iso, locale, or +FORMAT. FORMAT is interpreted like in date(1). If FORMAT is FORMAT1FORMAT2, then FORMAT1 applies to non-recent files and FORMAT2 to recent files.

% ls -la                                                                                                    .

Actual behavior

LSD always show the same time format.

% lsd -l                                                                                                    .

.rw-r--r-- mm staff 0 B Sun Sep 26 15:08:22 2021  recentfile

Is it possible to show the time for recent files and the year for old files?

We currently do not have support for specifying different time format for recent files, but that would be a great addition.
