function timeAgo(dateString) {
  const currentDate = new Date();
  const pastDate = new Date(dateString);

  const seconds = Math.floor((currentDate - pastDate) / 1000);
  const minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
  const hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
  const days = Math.floor(hours / 24);

  if (days > 0) {
    return days === 1 ? '1 day ago' : `${days} days ago`;
  } else if (hours > 0) {
    return hours === 1 ? '1 hour ago' : `${hours} hours ago`;
  } else if (minutes > 0) {
    return minutes === 1 ? '1 minute ago' : `${minutes} minutes ago`;
  } else {
    return seconds === 1 ? '1 second ago' : `${seconds} seconds ago`;
  }
}

// Usage Example
const timeStamp = '2022-01-01T10:30:00Z';  // Replace with your desired timestamp
const timeAgoString = timeAgo(timeStamp);
console.log(timeAgoString);  // Output: e.g., "3 days ago"
