Alex MacCaw: We Spanish use "dd/mm/yyyy" and "dd month yyyy" formats (no commas or th). Done to me would mean being able to select these in the Date format setting, then see it applied everywhere, especially in the title of daily notes and in the suggestions while adding a date as backlink.

Alex MacCaw: Hey Alex, I use Reflect since before it was cool, and I have two types of date links pointing towards my daily notes - older ones formatted "October 30th, 2021" and newer in the american format MM/DD/YYYY - so you changed it at some point. I don't know when.

Those links towards daily note dates appear if you start typing [[ and then add a date description, like [[Dec 31 2023 and then click on the suggestion that appears.

I am from Europe and we don't use the MM/DD/YYYY format. It's sometimes confusing (for the days 1-12 of the month) both to have the american format now AND to have it inconsistent with how it worked previously. :)

Do you plan to roll out an update that will change those links to (i) something universal across the app (that would also change the existing links; ISO8601 would be the best choice), and would hopefully (ii) not be a change for the american date format with the month upfront. :))

Or maybe just add a setting, like in other notetaking apps?

Alex MacCaw No. I literally want to have all the days/ dates in the 20240313 format. Now I only have two options presented in the settings: 13th March, 2024 and March 13, 2024. No option for anything numeric only, and certainly not in the ISO8601 format.

Marc Weijmar: Appears that we still cannot set the basic format 20231129 to be the default. Looking forward to that.
