When I hit reply on a new post, I often see a negative time for when I posted
it, which steadily ticks down to zero, and then starts counting upwards
normally. (See screenshot.)  I've seen it as high as "-24 seconds ago".

1) negative time is badly confusing, and should be displayed to the user.
Perhaps "in the last few seconds", or "very recently", or "within the last
minute".

2) it might be good to also understand what is causing this issue in the first
place
