MOST social media don’t have an actual date on it for a long time. Heck, look at these posts here. Most of them say “2 hours ago” or whatever relative time. Right now the OP says “1 day ago” for me. Which could be anywhere from 24-48 hours ago, or even a wider range depending on how they round those numbers.
If someone screenshots your post, then it gets reposted in 10 years, we’ll have no context for when it happened.
When I watch an old YouTube video, it might say “6 years ago” which could be a video created before COVID quarantine, to well within the window. The UI makes it very difficult to see the actual date/time that things were posted.

Fair point.
