For computing or sorting purposes, YYYY-MM-DD is best. But in day to day writing a date, I prefer DD-MON-YYYY.

11-Jun-2025

It's shit format but at least it's better than 11.6.2025 or 6/11/2025

Single letter for month is too ambiguous - how do you tell apart June, July and January? Also, what do O and N denote?

What if the day in question isn't a Monday?

I'm fine with anything in the realm of yyyymmdd or reversed, as long as it isn't the confusing format that is common in the USA

That's a tough one. I would have to say April 25. Because it's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.

I'm the only one annoyed about DD/MM/YYYY not being a date, but a date "format"?

Not only it's a recycled joke, it doesn't even make sense.

Why is there no format that gives the month in three letter abbreviation so its clear cut what it means?
