I think this is still relevant.
@warmwaffles @dlaidig although not the exact solution for this request, you might want to check out the latest pre-release, it contains part of it, the conversion of dates to human friendly ones. It can be enabled in settings. We should be able to use the function to work out the tool tips here.
I've tested this a while ago with sleek-2.0.12-rc.3 and thought that I commented here but that apparently got lost.
My first reaction was "wow, this feature solves 99% of my personal use case" (while tool tips with more information are still a good idea). I was quite happy to see "t: 4 days ago" instead of a date. And opening the dialog to edit the task still allowed me to see the actual date.
Now I updated to sleek-2.0.12 and it shows me "t: elapsed" instead of "t: 4 days ago". This is really not useful since non-elapsed tasks are hidden anyway.
When changing the filter to show tasks with threshold dates in the future, I also noticed that for tasks with "t:2024-04-01" it shows "t: next month". I guess this is technically true, but it gives my brain the impression that I still have a few weeks before this gets relevant. I would rather prefer to see "t: in 5 days".
@dlaidig I think this should be discussed in the feature request, where this feature has been established: https://github.com/ransome1/sleek/issues/609
There has been a longer discussion going on, where you can see why the feature had been designed the way it is right now.
You indicated in #224 that the tool tips should be tracked in a separate issue, so here it is.
