Yes, you are and you should feel shame about you.

While it's confusing in a vacuum, it's also just the way we say it out loud in american English (April 20, 2026), so it's not that weird when you think about it like that.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

That's MMM d yyyy, not mm dd yyyy. It removes the ambiguity but also removes the sortability. yyyy-mm-dd for the win.

[–] blackbeans@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

However for countries that adopt dd-mm-yyyy, it's also completely natural to say it out loud in that way (20 April 2026). So by that reasoning we will never end up with a universally accepted date format.

[–] Paradachshund@lemmy.today 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yep, I agree. There's no wrong answer, and language differs by culture.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

There's a right answer, and it's yyyy-mm-dd.

I think it's better than day month year but both are worse than year month day.
