YYYY-MM-DD is the only acceptable date format, as commanded by ISO 8601.
Sorting by date would be so much better with yyyymmdd .
"There shall be no other date formats before ISO8601. Remember this format and keep it as the system default"
Largest to smallest unit of time. It just makes sense.
YYYY-MM-DD:HH:MM:SS
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.SSSSSSSSSZ
Glad I can count my own country, Lithuania, among the enlightened.

where's that? somewhere in africa?
/s because apparently it's not implied
Military be like 23/NOV/2023
YYYY-MM-DD should be the main everywhere.
It is in Lithuania
These formats are overrated. MM/YYYY/DD is clearly better.
