One of guys from my forum reported this. He’s using some Android phone and here’s what he seeing:

On right there’s dates when last topics was created, instead of last message time as I see it on PC via FireFox:

I can repro here on meta. Looks like a legit issue to me.

I wouldn’t say it’s a bug, rather a UX question. Mobile is all about screen estate.

Where would you see the last activity time? Mockups are highly appreciated 😉

OK, it looks like an unintentional UX implementation.

In desktop view, you only see the time of the _last post_ for topics shown on the category page.  
In desktop view, you only see the time of the _last post_ for topics on the topic list page.  
In mobile view, you only see the time of the _last post_ for topics on the topic list page.  
In mobile view, you only see the time of the **first post** for topics on the category page.

Which of these things is not like the other? 😉

The first, you appear to be using the word _shown_

Probably a bug, @neil can you fix? I have some other requests for this page on Mobile that are tweaks.

I fixed. As @Maestra_Powers said, it was showing the date of the first post.
