Both are wrong. The correct way to write the date is YYYY-MM-DD. This is the only way to sort dates linearly in a list. ISO 8601.
In Arabic we use DD/MM/YYYY but it actually gets written as YYYY/MM/DD since Arabic is written and read from right to left. When the year is dropped the confusing part is not what format is used here but rather does this website/software support RTL or is it just regular unformatted ASCII.
Edit: it's still not ISO 8601 and it doesn't solve the sorting issue
It's frustrating that people are so bad at dates that ISO8601 lives rent-free in my head because I constantly have to tell people ;)
Hungarian is close enough
YYYY.MM.DD
♥️ this is what I decide to use at work. Dots are superior than dashes in my opinion because they prevent line breaks
I can be OK with that
But not with having elected the Trump of EU
Bro, trump is learning from Orbán if anything Trump is the US Orbán, fuck both of them too
And, when the context of the year is understood, you can just drop it. At least Japanese does this (and I'm pretty sure Chinese does as well).
You shouldn't do that, because if you're writing it down it means you want to either refer to it later or have someone else refer to it later. The year changes and you're searching for that receipt or email... why set yourself up for failure?
BRB -- I have to tell the country of Japan they're doing dates wrong /s.
For the things I'm thinking about, the year generally doesn't matter. I'm thinking advertisements or even things that say like 'Spring 2025 menu 2025年の春メヌー' or something which preserves context. A lot are also written on shop whiteboards and such which are changed fairly regularly. In my own notes, in anything I may care about that far into the future, I do write the full date in ISO-8601
