I like the american date format better than ours, because it's easiert to sort.

good: YYYY-MM-DD
bad: DD.MM.YYYY

Neither of those is the american date format. Our format is MM/DD/YYYY

It makes sense as it goes from numbers with the least maximum to the highest maximum:

(12 months)/(28 - 31 days)/(thousands of years).

@hans_w

@freemo @mk @hans_w And what's the use of that?
This way you could make sense of any order:
DD/YYYY/MM - The fastest changing number in front, tagged by the year.
MM/YYYY/DD - The season defining number in front....
YYYY/DD/MM - The day number nicely tucked between the static numbers...
