ISO-8601 over all other formats. 2023-08-09T21:11:00Z

Simple, sortable, intuitive.

Awful to actually read, though. Using T as a delimiter is mental... At least the hyphen provides some white space

Honestly, even a lowercase t.

Why are you splitting and delimiting a date object? Convert it to a shallower object if that's what you need

While you are definitely right, I and many others use yyyy-mm-dd outside of software. And that's when the T becomes super lame.

Good luck using colons in a filename.

Linux has been able to handle that since the 90s.

Tough luck if you are using NTFS file system. All my homies use EXT4.
