| Aug 6, 2021 at 16:30 | comment | added | ahiijny | I definitely agree that this should be an option. imo it's pretty reasonable that some people would not want minute-level granularity data about when they're online to be public. e.g. random example, artfight has the option to hide last seen as well (and artfight is a site where you need an account to even see user profiles), and anecdotally, I think there's a roughly 5:1 ratio of ppl who have their last seen visible vs. ppl who have it shown as "Hidden". | |

Another option is to round the "Last seen" time to the nearest quarter day or day, or to instead display the "Last active" time, as I mentioned here. | |
