yMMMd (d MMM y)

...and the very next block's heading got clipped when the page got chopped in half, but bestie, here's exactly what it puts out:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5 Feb 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22 Des 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15 Sep -10

yMd (d/M/y)

Day-first slashes, no notes:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 5/2/2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 22/12/1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 15/9/-10

yQQQ (QQQ y)

The short quarter vibe 🌸

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Robo ya 1 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Robo ya 4 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Robo ya 3 -10

yQQQQ (QQQQ y)

And the long quarter version β€” yes, it looks identical here, that's not a typo, that's just how this locale rolls 😌 (Robo is the quarter word, ya is the "of" glue, iykyk)

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Robo ya 1 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Robo ya 4 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Robo ya 3 -10

yw-count-one ('wiki' w 'ya' Y)

Week-of-year, singular flavour πŸ—“οΈ literally "wiki 6 ya 2008":

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = wiki 6 ya 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = wiki 51 ya 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = wiki 37 ya -10

yw-count-other ('wiki' w 'ya' Y)

Same energy for the "other" plural count β€” output matches, no cap:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = wiki 6 ya 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = wiki 51 ya 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = wiki 37 ya -10

πŸ¦‹ Miscellaneous πŸ¦‹

The little settings that live rent-free in this locale:

  • Prefers 24 hour time? Yes πŸ’… (no am/pm nonsense here)
  • Local first day of the week 1 (Jumatatu) β€” that's Monday, bestie, week starts on Monday, periodt

⭐ Strftime Patterns ⭐

If you're the type who writes strftime strings in your sleep (iconic of you), these are the three blessed shortcuts you get:

%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) β€” date time format

The full date-and-time situation, all lowercase-day-names and everything:

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Jumanne Feb  5 18:30:30 2008
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Ijumaa Des 22 09:05:02 1995
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Jumamosi Sep 15 04:44:23 -10
Not me noticing that double space before the 5 β€” that's the %e doing its thing, it's supposed to be space-padded 🫢

%x (%m/%d/%y) β€” date format

Month-first, two-digit year. Yes, the %x pattern says %m/%d/%y even though yMd above goes day-first β€” that's just how it is, don't come for me πŸ’€

2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
