presence update

Wondering how to differentiate when a person starts a new activtity, such as listening to spotify and that the activity should not be exisiting in old presence. For exaple, user is playing a game + spotify, if spotify updates , the game remains same, it should not show game.

  if (!oldPresence) return;
    if (newPresence.activities.length === 0) return;

    const { guild, userId, activities } = newPresence;

    console.log(newPresence);

    let str = "";

    for (const activity of activities) {
      const { type, state, details, name } = activity;

      if (type === ActivityType.Custom) continue;
      if (type === 6) continue; // vc channel activity

      const isSameActivity = oldPresence.activities.some((oldActivity) =>
        activity.equals(oldActivity)
      );

      if (isSameActivity) continue;
    }
    if (!str) return;

  if (!oldPresence) return;
    if (newPresence.activities.length === 0) return;

    const { guild, userId, activities } = newPresence;

    console.log(newPresence);

    let str = "";

    for (const activity of activities) {
      const { type, state, details, name } = activity;

      if (type === ActivityType.Custom) continue;
      if (type === 6) continue; // vc channel activity

      const isSameActivity = oldPresence.activities.some((oldActivity) =>
        activity.equals(oldActivity)
      );

      if (isSameActivity) continue;
    }
    if (!str) return;

here's what i got so far, seems to work. The .equals how does it work? it seems like if i am running vs code since few hours (timestamp property of activity showing start as few hours ago) but edit a new file (createdTimestamp updates), it says true. Is there anyway for me to modify it so it only show when the presence actually starts (running vs code)
