Get time difference in human readable format

Time Since JS

function timeSince(date) {

    var seconds = Math.floor((new Date() - date) / 1000);

    var interval = Math.floor(seconds / 31536000);

    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " years";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 2592000);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " months";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 86400);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " days";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 3600);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " hours";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " minutes";
    }
    return Math.floor(seconds) + " seconds";
}

Suggested adjustment, Requires you to pass in dates in correct order. If you use call after sorting, it should always give you the right result, presuming you have two results. Could look even better in TypeScript using modern JS like spread, but then it would need to own or receive a sorting method.

function timeSince(date1, date2) {

    var seconds = Math.floor((date2 - date1) / 1000);

    var interval = Math.floor(seconds / 31536000);

    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " years";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 2592000);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " months";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 86400);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " days";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 3600);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " hours";
    }
    interval = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
    if (interval > 1) {
        return interval + " minutes";
    }
    return Math.floor(seconds) + " seconds";
}
