When the Bible says there has never been a day like this, before of since, does that include present times? Or does it mean there’s never been a day like this before or since up until this Scripture was written?
 
I think for all time but I’m not expert that’s just how I take it.
 
I don’t think there was ever one like that before or since, ever. The daily cycle has always been 24 hours long. There was a miracle that preceded that verse which changed the course of the heavens which made one day as if it was two.

Holy Bible (Douay Rheims)
Josh 10:13 • ‘And the sun and the moon stood still, till the people revenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of the just? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down the space of one day.’

Reference:
Sir 46:5 • ‘Was not the sun stopped in his anger, and one day made as two?’
 
“Or since” means up to the time it was written. We are in a New Creation now. The Old has passed away.
