minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish52•2 years agoIt specifically requested DD/MM/YYYY format though.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish2•2 years agoI’ve experienced this kind of confusion first hand, so I know a thing or two.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish22•2 years ago95% of people are not USian and also, can read the requested date format correctly.
