I’d say perfect date is dd-mm-yyyy. All other formats are just wrong

Terrible date format.. Not sortable numerically and often confused with mm-dd-yyyy.

yyyy-mm-dd is the only way

YYYY-MM-DD if I'm inputting on a computer.

But I've recently converted to YYYY-MMM-DD for anything handwritten.

Because if someone is able to confuse 2024-APR-27 then they're the problem.

But the former format is better for digital sorting.
