💡 Idea

Mobile app shows notification time only if it's from today. But if it's older than that it only shows "yesterday" or just the date, but not the time. So for example if I got a notification before midnight when I'm at sleep and in the morning when I open my phone, the app just says the notification is from yesterday and I can't tell what time it was.

💻 Target components

Mobile app (iOS, I haven't tested Android app)

The funny thing is that this was meant to be a feature, not a bug, but I agree...

I concur, I think the ntfy app behaviour should be to display the date and time for notifications older than yesterday when viewing topic notifications.
