  • ISO 8601 is paywalled
  • RFC allows a space instead of a T (e.g. 2020-12-09 16:09:...) which is nicer to read.

Am programmer. Idk wtf that is. But if it converts easily to a datetime object, or if I can easily parse the parts out of it, I'm all for it. Idgaf if it's easy to read as-is. Just make it efficient and make it sort predictably, and I'm all for it lol.
