Typically, opening a bunch of posts that look interesting and processing them later, or being linked to a post (which is pretty common in safety research, since often a post will be linked, shared on slack, cited in a paper, etc) and wanting to get a vibe for whether I can be bothered to read it. I think this is pretty common for me.
I would be satisfied if hovering over eg the date gave me info like the reading time.
Another thing I just noticed: on one of my posts, it’s now higher friction to edit it, since there’s not the obvious 3 dots button (I eventually found it in the top right, but it’s pretty easy to miss and out of the way)

Oh, yeah, sure, I do think this kind of thing makes sense. I’ll look into what the most natural place for showing it on hover is (the date seems like a reasonable first guess).

I think this is really just a “any change takes some getting used to” type deal. My guess is it’s slightly easier to find for the first time than the previous design, but I am not sure. I’ll pay attention to whether new-ish users have trouble finding the triple-dot, and if so will make it more noticeable.
