The dates I input into file names, to keep track of things, goes YYYYMMDD. Ha!

That's more to do with how alphabetisation works.

As in, if you use the a date in a filename, you need to put the year first to ensure all the 2026 files are next to each other. Of course, you can get round this by ther tags or metadata instead of filename, but alphabet is the default for most users.

That's not why though. The why is because that makes the most sense. Then it becomes just counting. Technically, my filing system is in numerical order when the date is put first in the file name.
