Look at this screenshot from the homepage. The "post" timestamp is the same as the "last comment" one.

Drilling into the item shows the correct amount of time since I created it.

Thanks for the feedback. The prior logic was MAX(PostDate, LastCommentDate) but was supposed to be changed to PostDate. Bugged as [DC-246].

Checking for myself whether this is corrected. If after adding this comment the post date still displays correctly then it is.
