HiveSuite โ€” UI & Date Display Improvements

Enhanced Relative Date Formatting

Improved relative date formatting across multiple areas of HiveSuite to make older content easier to understand while keeping recent activity concise.

  • Enhanced relative date formatting across:
    • Posts
    • Search results
    • Notifications
  • Added support for displaying:
    • Minutes ago
    • Hours ago
    • Days ago
    • Weeks ago
    • Months ago
    • Years ago
  • Recent content continues to use the shorter minutes/hours format.
  • Older content now provides a more meaningful relative time description.
  • Applied the formatting consistently across different content and activity views.

This provides better context when browsing both recent and older Hive activity without requiring users to interpret exact timestamps for every item.


hSnaps Badge Update

Updated the application badge used for content associated with the previous hSnaps branding.

  • Renamed the hSnaps badge to #hivesuite app.
  • Applied the requested casing: #hivesuite app.
  • Updated the badge presentation to better match the current HiveSuite identity.
  • Reduced the badge size for a less intrusive appearance.
  • Reduced the font size.
  • Reduced the badge padding.
  • Improved the overall visual balance between the badge and surrounding post content.

The smaller badge keeps the application identity visible while allowing the actual post content to remain the primary focus.
