It’s easy to test on [https://try.discourse.org/](https://try.discourse.org/) 🙂

I can repro it:

After posting, on the timeline, the last activity indicator and number of posts are updated, but the date of the last message isn’t.

At first, I thought it was because the timeline didn’t scroll to my post. In this regard, the shown date (Jun 14) was right.  
After scrolling down to my post, it didn’t update and kept showing Jun 14 instead of show Aug 7, until the page is reloaded.
