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

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 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
