YYYY.MM.DD
2021.09.04

We use DD/MM/YYYY where I live though, but the above is the one that makes the most sense for me and what I use with every device that allows me to.

Not usually a fan of how England/Europe does things, but Day/Month/Year makes more sense to me. Either start with the smaller unit of measurement and work your way to the bigger, or go bigger to smaller. No one goes Minute:Second:Hour.

Writing the month out leaves no ambiguity at all

Though really YY/MM/DD should become the standard. MM/DD/YY makes the least sense.

This is a very narrow way to analyze the order: From smallest to largest or largest to smallest.

Month/Day/Year is by far the most logical in terms of its relevance in day-to-day conversation. Most people are much more concerned with the month than the specific day, of which is usually described as a day of the week instead (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday) imo

Regardless, people are just going to vote for whatever order they use in their country. This post was made at like 2-5 am in the US, so European methods will obviously win the poll.

Speak for yourself. After day of the week, I'm always gotta be on the look out for the day I pay rent, the deadline for doing things at work, pretty much anything that isn't fixed to a particular day of the week. Month is almost redundant. It's for dating recurring documents where day doesn't matter, but in konversation, day gets more traction in my experience.

My island is owned by England, but we're much kloser to Murrica and do it the American way.

This. I don't care about sequential order. If I'm talking about the date in person, I'll say it's September 3rd. So 09/03/21 works perfectly, for how I would say it aloud.
