when sorting by Hot some posts and comments show the time posted as "in X minutes" as if they will be posted in the future (lemmy.ml)

it happens only when sorting by Hot and it happens on a lot of posts regardless of what server you're on

It could be like reddit's time-travel shenanigans, where upvotes moved posts "forward" in time.

Seems like posts start at in 60 minutes and then start counting down

Is the time on your instance and on your PC at correctly? And is there a difference in timezones configured on your instance and pc? 60 minutes seems a bit too specific to not be timezone related.

Theres a github issue open about it with other people mentioning it so i dont think its an issue on my end

A difference in timezone settings could still be relevant in what causes the bug.
