I wish all sites that do the “x units ago” thing would put the time stamp in a title attribute.

If any accessibility experts are reading, is there a best way to do this? E.g. title attribute is best for mouse users to hover on desktop, but is there a way that works for all users on devices? Maybe the abbr tag?

So far I haven't seen an html-only solution that works on mobile.
