Is what you're looking for (re: --full-time) not `exa -l --time-style=full-iso`?

  `exa -l --time-style=full-iso' truncates the timestamps to millisecond resolution. `ls --full-time" gives the timestamps as they are stored by the file system, without alteration. For example the xfs timestamps and the FreeBSD ufs timestamps have nanosecond resolution.

    This is what I get running `exa -l --time-style=full-iso` on my ext4 system: `drwxr-xr-x - kosa 2021-09-02 12:20:39.114446860 -0400 Desktop` Unless it's different on xfs/ufs, this seems to be nanosecond resolution to me,

      You may be right, because I have not tried exa, but this is what is written in the exa documentation: full-iso specifies the timestamp down to the millisecond, including its offset down to the minute, without using the locale or current year. If this is information is obsolete, they should update their documentation, because wrong information like this discourages adoption.
