The "time ago" for comments on Parler was always a little suspect to me. I was poking around on there and noticed how so many of the comments were from seconds ago. The timestamps could be legit but it also seemed like maybe an engagement hack. You could argue someone might be more likely to respond to a comment that they think someone literally just wrote.

It could also be the fact that Parler isn't really good at that whole database thing: https://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/1348474968527360001 https://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/1348474968527360001
