I’d like to experiment by making it clear to readers that this topic and that topic and that other topic wouldn’t take long to read, so go ahead and read it now!

I know that at [medium.com](http://medium.com) it encouraged me to read more, so I believe it could encourage some else.

In order to do so, I’d like to display the approximate reading time in the topics list.  
Is this possible to achieve somehow?
