This would be useful mainly for posts in the same day that have some natural ordering (ie replies to one another). If it has a timestamp, should it be 2020-11-19T17:01:26+00:00, 2020-11-19T17:01:26Z, or 20201119T170126Z, or are any of these good? -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Jason F.
