read time if i not wrong, you can add it via plugins i think,
so they count the total word so we can calculate it

for x days ago... we can deal with it with system like this
date the article posted - current date = [x] days ago
if more than 365 days = 1 years ago

i think as simple as that, so you need to add simple counter on function

Bro, the function in wordpress for this is human_time_diff()
U could slip this code at bottom of ur Theme functions.php:

For posts (posted on):-

function my_timeago_post()
{
    return sprintf( esc_html__( '%s ago', 'textdomain' ), human_time_diff(get_the_time ( 'U' ), current_time( 'timestamp' ) ) );
}
add_filter( 'the_time', 'my_timeago_post' );

For comments (comment date) :-

function my_timeago_comments()
{
    return sprintf( esc_html__( '%s ago', 'textdomain' ), human_time_diff(get_comment_time ( 'U' ), current_time( 'timestamp' ) ) );
}
add_filter( 'get_comment_date', 'my_timeago_comments' );

Its an internal wordpress function, so check wp.org codex (docs) for its documentation, and h ow to format certain way depending on whatever conditions u like. (eg: if older than x, then use weeks, or use days, or etcetc
