Danke für nix, MS Teams* - komm mal klar mit deinem Datumsformat, ey!

#Strava has customisable settings which let me set temperatures to Celsius and distances to kilometres.

But it doesn't let me set the date format to #ISO8601 or, indeed, anything more sensible than American weirdness. Today Strava is telling me it's June. I mean what is this 5/6/2026 rubbish.

ISO8601-based custom date format in Linux Mint

Right-click the calendar widget in the panel > toggle Use a custom date format > Add %Y-%m-%d%n%H:%M% to the field below.

Seconds omitted because I don't have use for them, and %n to put the hours and minutes in a second line, so it's easier to read.

Didn't test in other Debian-based systems. And iirc changing the locale to either Danish or Japanese also works, but then the system won't be in English.

Hope this helps someone. =)

Oh, ich mag aktive online Kalender/Uhren und diese Seite hier zeigt aktuelles Tagesdatum und Uhrzeit in diversen Zeitsystemen an, zuoberst modifizierte Julianische Tageszahl:

Sieht vom Design her ziemlich nach Claude Opus aus, wenn ich mal meine eigene Kreation (metrischer Kalender/Uhrzeit) daneben halte:

One thing that is always annoying is how the unix datum, 1970-01-01 00:00:00 GMT was in fact 1970-01-01 01:00:00 BST in the UK the very country that invented GMT.
