Big one is upvotes I guess? Or not… It correlates only sometimes. The small one I have absolutely no idea.

Edit: Thanks everyone for answering! The big one is upvote rating and the second one is time. Regarding no letters: My guess is - it doesn’t show “m” or “h” near the time because my system is not in english, and though most of the lemmy is in english, for some reason the time on a post renders only “sometimes” in my system language or doesn’t render at all.

    The big number is the “karma” value. Upvotes minus downvotes. I’m not sure why the small number doesn’t have a letter next to it. For me, it’s how long it’s been since the comment or post.

      The big one are the upvotes, yes. I saw some posts somewhere why they don’t always align but currently can’t find one to link to. The small one is time.

        Right after posting it also show only “1” for me, just like in your picture. And the small dot right next to it.

    For me, the big number is the upcote “score” and the small number is the time since it was posted. But the time should have an m or d or h, I think, for minutes, days, hours, etc.

      On my end in the app I do see a letter indicating all the time unit from minutes and up.

    On my screen it shows “23m” where the smaller number is, I think it’s time since posted or last edited. I’m also using Jerboa, v0.0.34

    Score and age. Mine shows the second number like “23m” for 23 minutes, not sure if there’s a buried setting or something for showing the unit

    Big number: net upvotes = upvotes - downvotes

    Little number: time since the post or comment was created. Some comments have another time number in parentheses, which tells you when the comment was last edited.

    Upvote and downvote tallies seem to vary depending on which instance you’re using and how well things are syncing.

    Upvotes and time, 1 being one minute, if you find that post again I’d assume it’s about 8 hours later also, assuming that wasn’t an older pic.

    I see the score of this post is 3 and it was posted an hour ago.

    Score is the number of upvotes with the number of downvotes subtracted from it.

    It correlating only sometimes might be either the app or your instance falling out of sync, because it doesn’t keep up with the live vote count.
