If you stick to what you are doing now, you have the same problem that in 6 months, all your posts will list the “wrong” date, as they will have aged. If you MUST add the age of the linked story, I would encourage you to use an absolute date, rather than a relative one, as if you list X days ago they will instantly be wrong the next day.
Personally, what I do, is if the story is older than 1 year, I put the year in parenthesis (2012). If it’s from this year, I don’t bother. Many sites use the same pattern.

You do realise that the site shows you how old the post is, right?
Sure, but if you post a link to an article today saying
“Cheese is great for you (3 days old)”
well, after 2 days, that headline is no longer accurate.
if you post saying
“Cheese is great for you (2023-06-20)”
that headline is great forever
Ight, I will start changing titles tomorrow if I will have time.
