    They’re from another instance whose clock is set wrong.

    Not just in a different time zone, but theyre not using the right time zone where they are so they just changed the time manually to compensate or something.

    It used to happen a lot.

    If they originate from kbin, it’s a known issue. The timezones aren’t properly set in the federated data.

    Probably just a timezone issue. Instance you’re on could have a bad TZ, instance that had the post could have a bad TZ, or your local client may be wrong. Not the dev but TZs are just a pain in the ass
