Mismatch in view_friendly_time and the post_time in API result

I am working on a customization wherein we are parsing the time to be displayed in a friendly manner, i.e. 2h ago, 3w ago etc. I know there is already a way of doing it by using ?restapi.response_sty...

HaidongG - Thanks, this is a good workaround, but the problem with this is, using friendly_dates.format.under_day    = %h% 'h ago' the Output is 14 h ago, but i want it 14h ago, i.e. without a space b/w 14 and h,

 

If I use, friendly_dates.format.under_day  = %h%'h ago' 

 

Output - 14'h ago

 

If I use, friendly_dates.format.under_day  = %h% h ago

 

It doesn't print anything, any suggestions how can I encounter this?
