@churik I think the issue conflates two things: using the locale for date rendering and showing the year when the timestamp is older than a year. I updated the title to just be about showing the year.

Locale is already used to some degree and if we want to improve around that we should open another issue. I think it's probably not necessary for now though.

To clarify, we also have the Activity feed. So this should apply to both the bounties page and activities page.

Agree that the issue could be separated in two.

display dates in Activity Feed and Open Bounties according to user’s locale instead of predefined format ($Month $Day);

I'd be a bit more precise as for the format we want, since even in a locale there can be several. Example here, in the Localized formats section. Or here in the options section.

using the locale for date rendering and showing the year when the timestamp is older than a year.

I'd say when the timestamp is from the last year, even if it isn't one year old yet, so that you can visualise better what is from the current year (dates without a year) or what is from any other years (dates with a year).

Locale is already used to some degree and if we want to improve around that we should open another issue. I think it's probably not necessary for now though.

We could just describe what we want in an issue and set a bounty.

@martinklepsch allright, agree, a year for old bounties excluded from issue description. @pablodip feel free to edit issue if you can provide some technical details.
