        America being backwards and dumb in many ways doesn’t make them unimportant.

        I think as an exception this is not one word.

          Yes, it’s 3 words: einunddreisigster Dezember zweitausendunddreiundzwanzig

          (I put 12th instead of 31st in my first comment because I’m stupid)

      Because it’s clearly the best for numerous reasons.

      • when the 4 digit year is first, it’s obvious month is second. So 2024-01-02, for example, is definitely jan second and not Feb first (unless you’re insane)
      • you can name things with the date first and an alphabetical sort will automatically sort the files by date (you can’t always sort by date and sometimes you actually want a mixed sort like this

      The only thing date snobs hate more than other date snobs is date snobs who are right…

      It’s nicer and sorting it is easier.

    12-31-23

    The 23rd day of the 31st month of 2012?

    WTF?

    For the sane world the last day of 2023 was 23-12-31, or formated properly: 2023/12/31

    I really like year/month/day format as its sorts my files accordingly. Too bad not many countries, including my own, use this format.
