Subject: [PATCH] Add time-based post filtering feature
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Implemented configurable time-based filtering to show only recent posts:

- Added new experience settings for time filtering:
  - time_filter_enabled: Toggle to enable/disable time filtering
  - time_filter_days: Number of days to show (1, 3, or 7 days)

Changes:
- Updated settings_experience.html with time filter controls
- Added JavaScript toggle for showing/hiding time filter options
- Modified backend to save and validate new time filter settings
- Updated API posts endpoint to filter posts by timestamp when enabled
- Added time filtering to anonymous user default settings

Users can now limit their feed to show only posts from:
- Last 24 hours
- Last 3 days
- Last week (default)

This addresses the need for a "show only posts from last x time" feature
as a default filtering option.

Fixes #21
