      I literally never do that. I don’t even know what type of file a person would save under just a date- screen grabs from security footage maybe? I use names, because I can already sort by the creation date and I won’t know what each file is without a name.

      Again, each person uses dates differently and it would be silly for me to prefer that one because it might be better when doing something I’ve never done.

        I often like to differentiate between edit date and creation date. Also depending on a file is transferred the date might be reset to the current date.
