Does anyone actually read the "last updated" date on a post before trusting it?

honestly i rarely check it unless i'm looking for something specific. i care more about whether the information actually seems current
 
Random thoughts i had.... we always talk abt adding "last updated" dates to post for SEO/Trust signals but do You personally as a reader actually chck that date before deciding if info is credible
or is it most just a signal for google and users don't really care that much in practice.
I personally as a reader do check it. It is actually a necesitty in some niches.

It becomes very obvious when there was a change in topics that happens vry quickly such as SEO or software. Having an up to date is helpful, but really I takes the information much more seriously.
