The current date format on the forum is in the American standard which is month/day/year mm/dd/yyyy. This is a numerical format which can lead to confusion.
In America this post’s date is 10th January 2023. In the UK this date would be in the future 1st October 2023.
There are two formats which avoid this confusion
2023-10-01 or 10th Jan 2023.
I wanted to vote on this but although it identifies as voting open the option is not available - could this be a date related issue? i.e. is it being seen as in the future as I am in the UK?

@MortenCopenhagen you are correct. The Idea Exchange has been closed and the submissions there aren’t being considered anymore.
@nigelfreeney I saw you posted the link on your post. If you click the thumbs up icon, that lets you vote on the idea (I just did it), but it won’t really matter anymore. I’m guessing you were displayed the US date format since it’s the default (for whatever reason) but I’m glad you’re able to change it from your setting.
