Big one is upvotes I guess? Or not... It correlates only sometimes. The small one I have absolutely no idea.
Edit: Thanks everyone for answering! The big one is upvote rating and the second one is time. Regarding no letters: My guess is - it doesn't show "m" or "h" near the time because my system is not in english, and though most of the lemmy is in english, for some reason the time on a post renders only "sometimes" in my system language or doesn't render at all.
The big number is the "karma" value. Upvotes minus downvotes. I'm not sure why the small number doesn't have a letter next to it. For me, it's how long it's been since the comment or post.
Small one shows time for me, with m or d next to the number
The big one are the upvotes, yes. I saw some posts somewhere why they don't always align but currently can't find one to link to. The small one is time.
Right after posting it also show only "1" for me, just like in your picture. And the small dot right next to it.
Big number: net upvotes = upvotes - downvotes
Little number: time since the post or comment was created. Some comments have another time number in parentheses, which tells you when the comment was last edited.
Upvote and downvote tallies seem to vary depending on which instance you're using and how well things are syncing.
Upvotes and time, 1 being one minute, if you find that post again I'd assume it's about 8 hours later also, assuming that wasn't an older pic.
