minus-square@DeadMartyr@lemmy.ziplinkfedilink100•2 years agoYYYY-MM-DD (honestly without dashes) is the only helpful format. If you name all your files with this as a suffix then your files automatically sort versions of themselves in order when sorting by name.
minus-square@starman2112@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilink31•2 years agoISO 8601 baby Though it ought to be a prefix, not a suffix
