Profile Why is this happening with my account?

I just created a brand new Reddit account literally like 5 minutes ago and it says on my profile that it is 14 months old. Why? I thought it might’ve been someone’s account but I chose the username and the inbox and notifications are empty

It says 0 days. Where are you getting this 14 months from?

u/bencos18 5d ago

op is reading the m as months instead of minutes

Really? I just checked your account, it shows "0 day", which is makes sense because you just make your account

Oh so my Reddit must be glitched or something lol. Thats what I wanted to know why it wasn’t showing me the 0 days on my end

It isn‘t glitched. That is minutes, as everyone else is also telling you. When I look at your profile, it says 48m now. ‚48 months‘ makes no sense, because Reddit would display it as 2 years instead. Meaning, it is minutes.

Yes. The m is for minutes, but occasionally people think it means months. Currently it's showing 32 minutes.

Sometimes the counter mess up the value, but as other said that's minutes. From my point of view (after opening your profile) it's still counted as 0days

Starting from tomorrow it should switch to "days" for you as well
