This is a normal post yyyy/mm/dd is definitely the most better way - particularly when it comes to filesystem naming convention.
But at least ours follows some kind of logical pattern. mm/dd/yyyy is no use to anyone. Mind you, what do you expect from a nation that struggles to read 24h clocks without military training?

This is a normal post Proper ISO format is YYYY-MM-DD
But otherwise yes.

This is a normal post Indeed
Anyone using a forward slash as a separator for anything other than a file system needs to be slapped until they have used UNIX.

This is a normal post Hmm, I try to avoid hyphens in filenames too.

This is a normal post I was just using / as a separator.
The actual naming convention I use for date appropriate files is yyyymmdd, so 20230502. 2023_05_02 is probably easier on the eyes, but meh.

This is a normal post ISO format mandates hyphens
- or GTFO, as no-one says anymore

Just spent the last 14 fecking years correcting every cocking instance of non-ISO dates in my multinational firms files, so I may be a bitter triggered or summat.

This is a normal post It's not about computers for me
- it's about international harmonisation.

Which is probably worse.

This is a normal post They do this in Japan
But then, they often count years from the last Emperor and write in whichever direction they feel like.
